From 'Nothing Whispered To Katy' To sing out a dream tune Dreaming your life away Leaving so soon Living so far away How can you tell if he is lying to you When you are dreaming on sand? How can you tell if you are lying yourself When you say that you'll love and understand? And how, how can you tell? I thought I saw you cheating once or twice And so, well was it real? Or something in my eyes? How can you love him when your heart is elsewhere And you just want to fly? And what if he loves freedom and can't escape Do you take him to the sky? And how, how can you tell? I thought I saw you cheating once or twice And so, well was it real or something in my eyes And if you think of leaving When the sun rises Well, is it that you know That when your itchy feet are back again Well, that it's time to go? And how, how can you tell? I thought I saw you cheating once or twice And so well was it real, or something in my eyes?
