Shaking in the evening sun
Counting all the times I run
Trying to be honest
Selfish from a point of view
How'd it get away from me?
Held up in the old Q.C
Watching out the window
Crying in my hotel room
Oh I'll do anything that you want
Except what you're wanting from me
I'm lying to you 'cause I'm lost
Lying to you 'cause I'm lost
Lying to you 'cause I'm lost
My mother seems to know it all
Sensed it from a distant call
How's she so objective?
Tell me how you really feel
And I was once a maker of my time
A celebrated man of mind
Always feels a dream until the real sets in
Oh I'll be anything
Except what you want me to be
I'm lying to you 'cause I'm lost
Lying to you 'cause I'm lost
Lying to you 'cause I'm lost
So tell me darling what's it cost
When I'm lying to you 'cause I'm lost?
Lying to you 'cause I'm lost
I'm lost, I'm lost
I'll be anything
I'll be anything
Except what you want me to be
