False Faces

作曲 : Dan Fogelberg

Oil on canvas

couplets and stanzas

To divine who you are

Pencil portrayals and

Jealous betrayals

Get you further afar

False faces and

Meaningless chases

I travel alone

First places and

Calendar races

I need a home.

Hostile hotel walls

Footfalls and phone calls

And you're on the line

Gentle coercions and

Bitter desertions

When the truth is a lie.

False faces and

Meaningless chases

I travel alone

First places and

Calendar races

I need a home.

Lover twice yearly

That last battle nearly

Cost me the fight.

Broke through the ice

And got cut down to size

And escaped through the night.

False faces and

Meaningless chases

I travel alone

First places and

Calendar races

I need a home
