Deceptively Yours

I couldn't make a change
I might have known you had found, another love
I sat at home all night
Bask in the lonely pale of my bedstand light

But through a tear in a curtain in a cheap motel
I saw with jealous eyes
You made the call to lie
Deceptively yours

I saw a black cloud
I didn't hear a sound, only the shell on the ground
Was a scream somewhere
And in the thick night air, I put the pedal down
As the sirens wailed
And I sat alone and prayed, not knowing what was to come

But through a tear in a curtain in a cheap motel
I saw with jealous eyes
You made the call to lie
Deceptively yours

I tried not to believe the scene that I could see
It felt like days passes by
Before I truend away, I felt a dizzy sway
And the gun in my hand, stood before a judge
He cleared his throat to say, I won't give you no bail
Shackled with chains or love
I knew that I had bought, my own coffin nails

I hear your sweet voice calling out my name
As I stare from a six foot cell
And from beyond I heard the words
Deceptively yours
