Never had to tell a lie
Never had to say goodbye
It was only you and I
Then

Memories will have to do
They will take the place of you
Can't you tell me what is true
When

Words are lies the day they're spoken
Love's a lifetime's only token
Words are lies the day they're spoken
Promises are made to be broken

Life is always compromise
Ties that bind are a bind that ties
All I had was your two eyes
Then

Never had to tell a lie
Never had to say goodbye
It was only you and I
Then

Words are lies the day they're spoken
Love's a lifetime's only token
Words are lies the day they're spoken
Promises are made to be broken
They're made to be broken
