Pretty Lies - Pia Douwes

Written by：Frank Wildhorn

Father's tell

Such pretty lies to little girls

Life is good

And life is fair for little girls

When you smile and close your eyes

The pretty lies seem true

I saw my life

Perfectly it would be smoother than glass

Everything in 'its place

Order and calm wedding ring easy grace

All of my dreams in my reach

Coming true

Albert and me

Doing the things lover's do

I saw my life prosperous

Safe and sound

Father and me passing time skies a blue

Mother would be happy I'm happy too

Life would say on

Pretty lies full of bliss

I saw my life changing

But never changing like this

Such pretty lies masquerading as duty and honor

Everything dies

Even little girl story book plans and dreams

And

Give me the world

Finally as it is

Not black and white

Compromise as it is

Not wrong or right

Pretty lies as it is

Albert and me

Little girl foolish boy

Willing to live like a man who is willing to die

To justify

His pretty lie
