Was it her beauty? Was it her eyes?

You can tell me so many things but not a lie.

You can tell me how you both met under the sun's gloomy set.

You can tell me about the red-colored dress that she wore while she was impressed.

Dark red, light red, and ruby red; you can tell her so many things that you wouldn't tell me instead.

Was it her beauty? Was it her eyes?

You can tell me so many things but not a lie.

Starring at the traces of her lipstick, that is spotted on a lovable candlestick.

Is it her grace of passion she demonstrates? Or is it her satisfaction you love to take?

Was it her beauty? Was it her eyes?

You can tell me so many things but not an imaginary lie.
