A Matter of Trust Billy Joel
Intro: D A Bm
[D]Some love is just a [A]lie of the [Bm]heart[A] [D]
[D]The cold remains of [A]what began [Bm]with a passionate [A]start
[A]And they may not want it to end
[A]But it will, it's just a [A7]question of [D]when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can't offer you proof
But you're gonna face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trust
You [Em]can't go the distance
With[F#m] too much resistance
I kn[G]ow you have [F#m]doubts
But for [Bm]God's sake don't shut me [G]out [A] [D]
This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk away a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until it's only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
