Lyrics Todd Rundgren

Todd Rundgren

Love In Disguise

Sometimes things fall apart

That's god's love in disguise

And when I break your heart

That's my love in disguise

When you awake in pain

It should come as no surprise

I'm not sure I care

But it still must be there

My love in disguise

And all you want are sweet lies

I see my problem now

Her love was in disguise

Some fear that won't allow

Her love to shed this guise

Ian, don't be a fool

Look what she's done

She'll do it again

Pale, pure, and virgin things

So frail, it turns from my eyes

It hides while I become

So hurt my heart is numb

When love is in disguise

The best you have is sweet lies

Ian she'll be our downfall

Don't believe your eyes

Lies! and she'll leave you all alone

Possessiveness and jealousy

We recognize easily

That which we claim to prize

No one can recognize

The poor young sap is unaware of

Things that we are all aware of

The knife she hides behind her back

Misery! he gets his share of

The flowers must pollinate

The beasts are forced to mate

Woman and man decide

Yet we're not satisfied

God's love is in disguise

And all we want are sweet lies

Sweet lies

Long live the glorious revolution
