(publicity still from Les Miserables)
I would lie,
If it meant you never knew for you I cried
I would lie,
If it smoothed harsh words against your sacred pride
I would lie,
If it would guard my heart from never admitting love’s defeat
I would lie,
If you would offer up the moon as I serve at your feet
I would lie,
If it meant I could still hear your laugh as you breathed
I would lie,
If it meant I could feel your sigh unto me you as you are completely sheathed
I would lie,
If it meant I would get the chance to start over again
I would lie
If it meant my love would be hidden and we could only be friends
