White Lies - To Lose My Life

He said to lose my life or lose my love, 

That's the nightmare I've been running from. 

So let me hold you in my arms a while, 

I was always careless as a child. 

And there's a part of me that still believes, 

My soul will soar above the trees. 

But a desperate fear flows through my blood, 

That our dead loves buried beneath the mud. 

Let's grow old together, 

And die at the same time. 

Let's grow old together, 

And die at the same time. 

I said I've got no time I have to go, 

And I was more right then now I'll ever know. 

He said my heart is faint, will minds regret, 

And left him crying next to the chapels steps. 

Let's grow old together, 

And die at the same time. 

Let's grow old together, 

And die at the same time. 

He said… 

Let's grow old together, 

And die at the same time. 

Let's grow old together, 

And die at the same time. 

He said… 

He said to lose my life or lose my love, 

That's the nightmare I've been running from. 

So let me hold you in my arms a while, 

I was careless as a child. 

There's a part of me that still believes, 

My soul will soar above the trees. 

A desperate fear flows through my blood, 

Our dead loves buried beneath the mud. 

A desperate fear flows through my blood, 

Our dead loves buried beneath the mud

White Lies - Unfinished Business

Just give me a second darling 

To clear my head 

Just put down those scissors baby, on this single bed 

The sand in the hourglass is running low 

I came through thunder, the cold wind 

The rain and the snow 

To find you awake by your windowsill 

A sight for sore eyes and a view to kill 

I broke down in horror at you standing there 

The glow from the moon 

Shone through cracks in your hair. 

I shouted with passion, 

"I love you so much" 

But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch. 

You whispered "where are you?" 

I questioned your doubt 

But soon realised, you were talking to God now 

You've got blood on your hands 

And I know it's mine 

I just need more time 

So get off your low and let's dance like we used to 

But there's a light in the distance 

Waiting for me, I will wait for you 

So get off your low and let's kiss like we used to 

I looked in the mirror 

But something was wrong. 

I saw you behind but my reflection was gone. 

There was smoke in the fireplace 

As white as the snow. 

A voice beckoned gently 

'Now it's time to go' 

A requiem played as you begged for forgiveness 

"Don't touch me!" I screamed 

"I've got unfinished business" 

You've got blood on your hands 

And I know it's mine 

I just need more time 

So get off your low and let's dance like we used to 

But there's a light in the distance 

Waiting for me, I will wait for you 

So get off your low, and let's kiss like we used to
