Turn A Pretty Phrase


You say you'd walk on water to reach my shore
How many times have I heard that line before
Now your lies are getting old
The words you say are better left untold
I stood beside you when you were feeling down
When you said you loved me you were fooling around
Now my heart is turning cold
I'm young, but I feel so very old
You say I'm all you'll ever need to survive
But my eyes are open and now I realize
You could always win my heart
I should have seen the truth right from the start
You turn a pretty phrase
That's all that I can say
Your words once rung so true
But you won't get my love too
Though you turn a pretty phrase
Your words won't blind my gaze
I won't live in a daze
Even though your lips
May turn a pretty phrase
