Lyrics for Stage Whispers

Well I'm waiting in the wings with all the strings And things that help me make the music Just another curtain call before I fall Into you arms again, my beauty This guitar does not lie The great deception is not my achievement The spotlight falls upon the fool Who sings of love then acts so cool And then calmly smiles I play the clown The hero torn between the darkness And the dawn's deceiving light This guitar does not lie The great deception is not my achievement Where is the one who knows The shape of things to come The thrills that I have won The kiss that time's begun for me Well I've found another stage Another page to turn A harsher pain to answer to But I'm giving all my feelings To the things that I believe in That's all I can do This guitar does not lie The great deception is not my achievement Well I'm waiting in the wings with all the strings And things that help me make the music
