Said You Loved Me, But You Lied

Rewrite of Michael Bolton's Said I Loved You, But I Lied

 

You were the candle

I could't resist your flame

A fire I believed forever could burn

Through any wind or rain

Blinded by your Casanova light

I let you whole

Into this innocent heart of mine

Believin' we could be

Till the end of time

 

You came so strong onto me

Gave the dawn to my night

On and on

You fed my glowing sun

Fulfilled all my dreams

Promised a new life

You were the one

I was so sure

You were the one

 

Chorus

 

Said you loved me, but you lied

Cause this feels too raw

What I'm feelin' inside

Said you loved me

So how could you do me so wrong

Cause you would still be here

If what you said you felt was really strong

Said you loved me, but you lied

 

With all my soul I've tried in vain

To understand why

Yet nothing can seem to explain

How you could give me a taste of Heaven

So deep

So true

Then reveal

Hell was really you

 

So many reasons

I've tried to summon

To no avail

In so many ways

Feels as if my heartache has

Only just begun

Made me need you forever

Then dediced you did't wanna stay

You were the one

I was so sure

You were the one

 

You came so strong onto me

Gave the dawn to my night

On and on

You fed my growing sun

Fulfilled all my dreams

Promised a new life

You were the one

I was so sure

You were the one

 

Chorus

 

Said you loved me

So why am I so raw inside

Said you loved me, but you lied
