Love Lies

Words and Music by Nancy Freitas

Don't know much about the way it works
Think I'm not that lucky
Every time I try to love it hurts
What the world does that mean

Thought that love was something warm and tender
That's what Mama told me
When I feel such sweetness honey, I surrender
Then it scalds me

Somethin's off inside
Just not feelin' right
Yet I keep on tryin'
Tryin' to find how love
Tryin' to find how love
Find how Love Lies

Tell me when do you run for shelter
When do you enjoy the shade
The leaves will cool you in a summer swelter
Where do you find strength in the storms of rage

I feel the heat and then the ice kicks on
A little peace and then the war's begun
I wonder why I fall when I stand strong
I need someone to hold me all night long

Somethin's off inside
Just not feelin' right
Yet I keep on tryin'
Tryin' to find how love
Tryin' to find how love
Find how Love Lies
Find how Love Lies, honey
Love Lies

And in the morning all is soft and warm
And the peace comes following the storm
In my heart I feel a little stronger
Fear is holding me back no longer

Somethin's warm inside
Maybe feelin' right
Yet I keep on tryin'
Tryin' to find how love
Tryin' to find how love
Find how Love Lies, yeah yeah yeah
Find Love Lies, honey
Love Lies, yeah yeah yeah
Love Lies, whoa or whoa

Find how love, find how love
Find how love, find how love
Find how love, find how love
Find how love, find out how Love Lies
How Love Lies
Love Lies
Love Lies
