There is Someone Else

you can hide behind a painted smile
you can never hide what you're not feeling
I just kissed you but somehow you didn't kiss me
there is something that you're holding back
when I hold you you're so unresponsive
just admit it to yourself, admit it to me

I can see that there's someone else
I suspected long ago
I can tell there is someone else
you don't tell me but I know

self-denial is a painful thing
it is tantamount to self-destruction
let's communicate and let our secrets run free
it's much easier for both concerned
if we face the truth without deception
don't prevaricate this time - confess it to me

I can see that there's someone else
I suspected long ago
I can tell there is someone else
you don't tell me but I know

your expression can't hide the lies
when I look for love in your eyes it's gone
something you are hiding is sad
when I look for what we once had
it's gone, gone, gone
