Best Deceptions

I heard about the trip. I heard about your souvenirs. I heard about the cool breeze in the cool nights And the cool guys That you spent them with. I guess I should have heard of them from you I guess I should have heard of them from you Don't you see, don't you see, That the charade is over? And all the best deceptions And the clever cover story awards Go to you. So kiss me hard 'cause this'll be the last time that I let you. I heard about your regrets. I heard that you were feeling sorry. I heard from someone that you wished you could Set things right between us. I guess I should have heard of that from you I guess I should have heard of that from you So don't you see, don't you see, That the charade is over? And all the best deceptions And the clever cover story awards Go to you. So kiss me hard 'cause this'll be the last time that I let you. You will be back someday, And this awkward kiss that tells of other people's Lips Will be of service In giving you away. So don't you see, don't you see, That the charade is over? And all the best deceptions And the clever cover story awards Go to you. So kiss me hard, 'cause this'll be the last time that I let you. I'm waiting for blood To flow to my fingers I'll be all right when my hands get warm. Ignoring the phone, I'd rather say nothing, I'd rather you never heard my voice. You're calling too late, Too late to be gracious. And you do not warrant long good-byes. You're calling too late, You're calling too late.
