I Believed in You

And I still see your face in my mind’s eye
when you told me you loved me were you telling a lie
that line that we crossed when nothing was said
when the things left unspoken make war with your head
So just who am I to say this is true — I believed in you
And I long for the touch that traced my desire
that healed me and ruined me and made you a liar
if love can survive like the stars in your eyes
when those stars have gone out then the rest is just lies
Just who am I to say that I knew — I believed in you
Now the queen of the night in her cool and drag
walks the walk and talks the talk with a house brick in her bag
and she moves to the tune of a thousand lost souls
who clamor in her insect dreams for the absolution she bestows
just who am I to say what I do — I believed in you
