Geographer - Verona lyrics

[Verse 1] You call me all the right words But the right words sound so wrong You say that I am changing I guess I will before too long Will you give me a way out or a past to live down? Either way it couldn't be worse than it is now I'm watching while a wild dog makes ripples round and round Is every single whisper a life that we should know by now Or is it just a sound? Something keeps a river from sinking into the ground Was I ever any different? It's the simplest ones, the simplest ones [Chorus] White lies in the night If I could be yours then you could be mine As long as it rhymes It's all that I'll ever need I hear white lies in the night If I could be yours and you could be mine We keep what we hide And you told such simple lies [Verse 2] Now that we are free, Verona, won't you keep me out? Drive me to the city where every building shouts I want to hear some people I want to leave the windows down I never will believe you You should know why by now, whooo [Bridge] It is the simplest things we want, whoa But we can never see enough, whoa And it's the simplest things we want, whoa And it's the simplest ones, the simplest ones [Chorus] White lies in the night If I could be yours then you could be mine As long as it rhymes It's all that I'll ever need I hear white lies in the night If I could be yours then you could be mine We keep what we hide And you told such simple lies
