Lyrics Albert Hammond

Albert Hammond

The Face Not The Image

If I show you my face, yes, the face, not the image

I may show you a man you care nothing about

If you look at the truth, yes, the truth, not the image

I could lose you, my love

I could lose you, my love

I love you,

Everything I do I do because I love you

Opening my life before your eyes

Is opening the painful past, and yet

I need you

Just to live a lie I'd die because I need you

I couldn't do it just for anyone

I wouldn't do it just for anyone but you

If I show you the thorns, don't forget there were roses

If I show you the clouds, don't forget there was sun

If I show you the tears, don't forget there was laughter

Love me just as I am

Love me just as I am

I love you,

Everything I do I do because I love you

Opening my life before your eyes

Is opening the painful past, and yet

I need you

Just to live a lie I'd die because I need you

I couldn't do it just for anyone

I wouldn't do it just for anyone but you

And if I show you my face, yes, the face, not the image

I could lose you, my love

Yes, I could lose you, my love

I love you

Everything I do I do because I love you

Opening my life before your eyes

Is opening the painful past, and yet

I need you

Just to live a lie I'd die because I need you

I couldn't do it just for anyone...
