here are the correct lyrics (i bought a physical copy of the EP):
you call me all the right words
but the right words sound so wrong
you say that i am changing
i guess i will before too long
will you give me a way out or
a past to live down
either way it couldn’t be worse
than it is now
i’m watching while a wild dog
makes ripples round and round
is every single whisper a life that
we should know by now or is it
just a sound
something keeps a river from
sinking into the ground
was i ever any different?
it’s the simplest ones,
the simplest ones
white lies in the night
if i could be yours then you could
be mine
as long as it rhymes
it’s all that i’ll ever need
i hear white lies in the night
if i could be yours then you could
be mine
we keep what we hide
and you told such simple lies
now that we are free, verona,
won’t you keep me out?
drive me to the city where every
building shouts
i want to hear from people
i want to leave the windows down
i never will believe you, you
should know why by now
it is the simplest things we want
but we can never see enough
it’s the simplest ones,
the simplest ones
white lies in the night
if i could be yours then you could
be mine
as long as it rhymes
it’s all that i’ll ever need
i hear white lies in the night
if i could be yours then you could
be mine
we keep what we hide
and you told such simple lies
