I remember all of this in slow motion Every tawdry detail Dust caught in the sun in your kitchen Empty words, saying nothing I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was A church behind a road, a couple kissing Both of us know what that means I'd rather have that kiss than what is missing Say anything you like and i'll believe you I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was What a wonderful lie What a wonderful lie What a wonderful lie What a wonderful lie What's the truth ever done for me? I don't know So tell me again Tell me again Tell me again This wonderful lie All i want is something i can't have And if you can't tell the truth Then make it a wonderful lie I see you dance with all your heroes Each different doll in judy garland shoes And if they can dance Then why, oh why, can't i? I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was I nearly forgot who i was What a wonderful lie What a wonderful lie What a wonderful lie What a wonderful lie What's the truth ever done for me? I don't know So tell me again Tell me again Tell me again Tell me again This wonderful lie This wonderful lie This wonderful lie
