Homemade Lies

I thought the bits of love I gave
Would always get me by
I thought that deep down lovin'
Was a hard-time alibi

I never would have done the things
That make a good love die
If I'd a known what I was losin'
When I let you say goodbye

But since you left me baby
The truth is killing me
Since you left me baby
I have begun to see
That the homemade lies
That gave you weepin' eyes
Are laughin' at my misery
Yeah

Forgive me for the shallow words
That now are drownin' me
Forgive me for the uptight pride
That kept love out of reach

Come back and let the love I feel
Erase those memories
Come back and let us have it
Like you know it aught to be

'Cause since you left me baby
The truth is killing me
Since you left me baby
I have begun to see
That the homemade lies
That gave you weepin' eyes
Are laughin' at my misery
Yeah

Since you left me baby
The truth is killing me
Since you left me baby
I have begun to see
That the homemade lies
That gave you weepin' eyes
Are laughin' at, laughin' at, laughin' at my misery
Woh, yeah
