Beautiful Lie Lyrics

You told me once

That I look at you the way you look at me

How can that be?

We'll walk the town

Find trees and memories with colorful leaves

Just you and me

And I know that it's all in my mind

That I'm searching for someone to love like I used to

I've never met someone so kind

So I

I'm chasing the moonbeams you hide in your eyes

I'm brushing your hand as we walk side by side

I'm trying to tell myself you can't be mine

But I'd rather live in a beautiful lie

You'll pick me up

We'll drive around until quarter to three

Like we're seventeen

I start to stare

Your cellophane smile and your eyes like the sea

I've been set free

And I swear that it's different this time

Maybe I'll fall and you'll be there to catch me

But melodies don't always rhyme

So I

I'm chasing the moonbeams you hide in your eyes

I'm brushing your hand as we walk side by side

I'm trying to tell myself you can't be mine

But I know that it's just a beautiful lie

Oh I can pretend

And I hope you don't open your eyes

I don't want this to end

So the movie replays in my mind

I'm finding the moonbeams you hide in your eyes

I'm holding your hand as we walk side by side

And I don't need to tell myself you can't be mine

'Cause I know that it's just a beautiful lie

So I'll chase the moonbeams you hide in your eyes

I'll brush your hand as we walk side by side

I'm trying to tell myself you can't be mine

But I'd rather live in a beautiful lie

If I close my eyes it's not really a lie
