From the album If That's What It Takes

By michael mcdonald and randy goodrum

What's that lyin' on her pillow
Folded up so neat
What once was love is now a letter
Lying where she used to sleep
Oh, i thought love was something i could count on
But it took her to show me that

Chorus:
Love lies-right to your face
Love lies-just when i had faith
It would let me down
I know that love lies-right to the end
Love lies-i know the word will never mean the same to me

What's this emptiness inside me
Where her promise used to be
She said she'd be here to guide me
I guess now the joke's on me
Oh, i thought love was something like devotion
But it took her to show me that

Chorus:

Just when you think you know what love is about
Someone takes your place, and you find that

Chorus:
