LYRICS:

You tell yourself that you can trust him

That you know him better than anybody can

You don't believe the things they tell you

When the evidence is stacked against your man

Oh, I've seen it with my own eyes and I do not want to tell you lies

But you asked me here to help you to feel better

Chorus:

Only lies can comfort you

Only lies will see you through

Just because a thing's convenient that doesn't make it true

Only lies can comfort you

Well, that fine if that's what you want

I'm sure there's some good reason for where he's gone

Maybe he was drivin' and the car broke down

And he's stuck on the interstate outside of town

Oh, what good is the truth, when it causes so much pain for you?

Your optimism's up against a wall

Chorus

Wow, what a beautiful song - so sweet, yet mournful - a fresh soothing balm spread over the oldest of romantic wounds.

I heard this on WGCS (the Goshen College station) while I was driving home one night recently. I had to pull over to and write down the title so I wouldn't forget it. When I got home I came here and found it. What a gem! It has so few lyrics, but it tells a full rich story not only about lies and infidelity, but, also, about self-deception and asking our friends to support that self-deception. WOW!

This guy is such a great player and singer. Amazing songwriting as well. It was so rad when he and The Boys were the house band at Fitz's. This album is going to be pretty special I bet. Houston misses him, but shit, he gets to go see the world and play shows. So cool.
