Lyrics I've Lied - 2013 Remaster - Archie Roach

Sitting here in a lonely old guest house
I'm sure that my life is all through
Scratching fleas and watching a grey mouse
I'm making love to the memory of you

For without you, I am weak and uncertain
And I feel so naked and cold
Like a window without any curtains
My innermost feelings unfold

The drink that I just had
It wasn't as bad as the first
But, drinking won't do
When it's only for you, I thirst, I thirst

For your kiss, it quenches all body
It's sweeter than the sweetest of wine
Now you're gone, I find myself yearning
For the love I left behind

Nobody can feel the pain that I feel inside
And if I said I'm strong, and I'm never wrong
I've lied, I've lied

Nobody can heal the pain that I feel inside
And if I said I'm strong, and I'm never wrong
I've lied, I've lied, I've lied
