lyrics

Love Lies Elsewhere

It’s not in her face it’s not in the place you though it was
It’s not where you’ve been, or in someone you’ve seen walk away from you and leave with no doubt

And it’s true all you know is wrong that you though all along the way is coming to bear
And it’s true, when the light appears and banishes your fears away only to fade
as hard as you stare, love lies elsewhere

It’s not in the streets or in black satin sheets that you lay at night
It’s not though the door to drunken dance floor that you’re going to find just what you need

And it’s true all the dirty lies and how you recognise today love from despair
And it’s true what you leave behind and how you try to find a way has left you upon
a wing and a prayer, love lies elsewhere

Maybe written on an empty page or acted out upon a foreign stage that will haunt you for the rest of your life
Maybe it’s right there below your feet or tangled in a web of fine deceit, maybe somewhere,
maybe somewhere

And it’s true all you try to hide and what you find inside to say is just not enough
And it’s true your heart has lost its head and left you on a bed of nails it just goes to show,
Just when you think you are there, love lies elsewhere, maybe somewhere,
maybe somewhere
