Текст песни I’ve Lied (30th Anniversary Edition) - Archie Roach

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

But without you, I′m weak and uncertain
And I feel so naked and cold
Like a window without any curtain
My innermost feelings unfold

And the drink I just had
It wasn′t as bad as the first
But drinkin' won′t do
When it's only for you I thirst, yeah, I thirst

′Cause your kiss, it quenches all burnin'
Oh, it′s sweeter than the sweetest of wine
Now you're gone, oh, I find myself yearnin'
For the love that I left behind

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

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