A matter of trust
par Billy Joel

Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
And they may not want it to end
But it will it´s just a question of when
I´ve lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won´t happen to us
Because it´s always been a matter of trust
I know you´re an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can´t offer you proof
But you´re going to face a moment of truth
It´s hard when you´re always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It´s a matter of trust
You can´t go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God´s sake don´t shut me out
This time you´ve got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won´t hold back anything
And I´ll walk a way a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It´s make believe until its only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I´m sure you´re aware, love,
We´ve both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you´ve heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can´t happen to us
Because it´s always been a matter of trust
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
And they may not want it to end
But it will it´s just a question of when
I´ve lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won´t happen to us
Because it´s always been a matter of trust
I know you´re an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can´t offer you proof
But you´re going to face a moment of truth
It´s hard when you´re always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It´s a matter of trust
You can´t go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God´s sake don´t shut me out
This time you´ve got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won´t hold back anything
And I´ll walk a way a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It´s make believe until its only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I´m sure you´re aware, love,
We´ve both had our share of
Believing too long

Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control

There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can´t happen to us
Because it´s always been a matter of trust
