Talis Kimberley - Harbouring Hopes lyrics

He harbours hopes but I am all at sea I don't love him but he still loves me And that is not his fault, and it is not mine He holds doors open but I have left the room He tends a garden but this rose will never bloom And lies are often sweet but seldom kind Well I could lie, I could cheat I could make like smoke when there isn't any real heat But that would hurt Both him and me And since I'm not as cruel as I'm made out to be I won't do that I made no promise that I failed to keep Just because you didn't see me cry don't mean I didn't weep So hate me if it helps, you have that right You said some things I was surprised to hear from you Let the bitter one liners out, I guess I'm owed a few I'm not keeping score - it'd be no fair fight Well I could play The role you've set I could say there there alright it isn't over yet But we'd be right back here again Before too long And giving false harbour to your hopes would be wrong I don't do that Well I could lie, I could cheat I could make like smoke when there isn't any real heat Sure I could I could pretend But that's no way to treat a lover much less a friend He harbours hopes but I cut them free I don't love him but he says he still loves me And that is not his fault And it is not mine And that is not his fault...
