[Verse 1]
Feels like the world belongs to you and me
Finally free now, baby
Did our past just disappear?
More than a little bit of history
In this big old city
Well, are we out of danger, dear?

[Chorus]
I’m scared that you’re lying
But it’s just the start of the evening
And people can start again and be brand new
[Verse 2]
I’m tired of living in a tragedy
I’m tired of feeling empty
I didn’t have an exit plan
There really isn’t any strategy
Directly behind me
Now I’ve shown up, hat in hand

[Chorus]
I’m scared that you’re lying
And it’s just the start of the evening
And people can start again and be brand new
I’m gonna try it
Who knows? I may start believing
That every word you say is true

[Verse 3]
Something doesn’t quite add up to me
More than something, really
And I can’t keep it to myself
I got the champagne and the flattery
To keep me busy
Raise a glass now to your health

[Chorus]
I’m scared that you’re lying
And it’s just the start of the evening
And people can start again and be brand new
I’m gonna try it
Who knows? I may start believing
Every word you say is true
Well, every word you say is true
