Golden Thread

Tell me one more lie my dear
Tell me one more lie my dear
Tell me one more lie my dear
Tell me one more lie my dear

There's lights on in a window
And a sign post in the snow
There's a golden coin beneath your pillow

There's parachutes above you
And life boats below
And a heart that loves you
Yeah I think you know

There's treasure maps well hidden
And diamonds in the dirt
There's a golden thread weaved in to your shirt

There's a kiss for every tear
That rolls down your cheek
And words I shouldn't hear
And words you shouldn't speak

So tell me one more lie, my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
Oh tell me one more lie, my dear

Well there's whisky and blankets
And a bonfire when you're cold
I'll hold a golden breathe till I'm silver and old

With only hope to keep alive
And only time to kill
There's a fool that loved you
And he loves you still

So tell me one more lie, my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
Oh tell me one more lie, my dear

Spin me one more tale, sweet heart
Weave golden needle and thread through my heart
Whisper all the things you know I long to hear
Oh tell me one more lie, my dear
