Where the Love lies

I get this strange kind of feeling
Seems to know someone's deceiving
Like a demon dealing
Dirt upon my soul

I let you into my kitchen
The place I do my witchin
Baked your cake and even
Let you lick the bowl

I had no proof only yearning
But your secrets kept on burning
Now the fire's surging
Out of your control

And when I shared my fears you told me
You got problems take it easy
Still I think my intuition
Scored the goal

Now they say revenge is sweet
Poetic justice is a treat
But there's no rhythm in that beat
Unless I cry

It's where the love lies
Makes me rest my feet
It's where the love lies

Goes beyond deceit
It's where the love lies
Makes me feel complete
It's where the love lies

My senses had a knowing
And your face it was a showing
What your conscience was too frightened to reveal

Coz in the truth there's no hiding
No secrets or confiding
Making you run for fear that someone’s
Going to squeal

I do not envy your cama
Your soul ain’t got much armor
As a consequence you're in for a surprise

Now you may be sharp and witty
But the things you do aint pretty
Better get the sun to shine on your third eye

If I could turn the other cheek
Maybe I'd find the things I seek
Even if people call me weak

Still I will cry

It's where the love lies
Makes me rest my feet
It's where the love lies
Goes beyond deceit
It's where the love lies
Makes me feel complete
It's where the love lies
