＂ Sometimes it gets so thick in here ＂ she said

Clearing the plates from another power lunch

Then she laughed at herself and told me what was good

No ring no coy disguise but world-weary innocence in her eyes

Said ＂ Every false move you make will be withstood ＂

＂ Lies like rust decay

Is your heart that way

Vows like prayers are heard

Are you gonna keep your word

And when in time I pledged heart and soul

She said ＂ Love is patient

But you must know that feelings come and go Like these sainted patrons ＂

Lies like rust decay

Is your heart that way

And good intentions are no guarantee just look at me

Are you gonna keep your word ＂

When the seige begins

When the thieves break in

Will you stand your ground

And when you fight the wars on foreign soil

Will I rest assured

Are you gonna keep your word

And as we watch our children sleep

I take her hand I feel her ring

I have been faithful but I know my heart is not above deceit

Lies like rust decay

Is your heart that way

Vows like prayers are heard

Will I keep my word

Lies little lies come back to haunt you like petty fraud

Vows are made forever before God And I will always keep my word to you
