Truth tripped lightly from your teasing lips
But your dancing eyes, my heart beguiled
Not off and running from your cutting quips
Instead I opened to embrace denial
Trust slipped slightly to your waiting arms
While you're holding me, I'm fooled by style
Now lost and stumbling from your suspect charms
My heart keeps hoping
I embrace denial
Embrace denial, draw it ever so close
Embrace denial, flesh the elusive ghost
Your liveliness, it deadens the pain
Charmed by your voice, I miss the refrain
Embrace denial
Shame grips tightly when I face my lies
My deluded heart can't bear the trial
My gaze returning to your dancing eyes
Can I be coping to embrace denial
