Sweet Lies Lyrics By Robert Palmer

    by robert palmer frank blair dony wynn

    we tell sweet lies fooling one another
    we gain a fake upper hand
    we get outsmarted when we rediscover
    we underplay

    you took me in i never minded
    you broke the rules i saw through you then

    what a surprise when we turn into lovers
    the tables turn on us
    all those sweet lies tear away the covers
    and now we know not to underestimate
    what hearts can do
    you keep an eye on me
    i’ll keep an eye on you

    you took me in i never minded
    you broke the rules i saw through you then

    what a surprise when we turn into lovers
    we never guessed it could be
    all those sweet lies tear away the covers
    the tables turn
