Billy Joel Matter Of Trust Lyrics

Matter Of Trust Lyrics

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 of 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 away 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
