Big Lie - Van Morrison

It was all a big lie

There was no heart to break

Everything seemed about it fake

Like it just didn’t take

Got to make no mistake

It was all a big lie

I was king for a day

I was just making hay

They hung on to every word

Oh yes they did

That I had to say

When I turned around

Somebody stole my crown

It was all a big lie

Well I thought I knew

But I got fooled

It could easily happen to you

(But don’t look so smug)

But don’t look so smug

(When they pull out the rug)

When they pull out the rug

My, my, my, my

My, my, my

It was all a big lie

There was no cake to bake

There was no more to brak

There was no heart to ach

There was no time to waste

There was no food to taste

No love to take

No heart to break

There was no heart to break

There was too much at stake

There were no rules to make

It was for goodness sake

Try to keep me awake

But there was no heart to break

My, my, my, my, my, my, my

(No heart to break)

My, my, my, my, my, my, my

(No heart to break)

My, my, my, my, my, my, my

(No heart to break)

My, my, my, my, my, my, my

(No heart to break)

Make no mistake

Make no mistake

There was no heart to break
