Paul Kelly - Sonnet 138 Lyrics
When my love swears that she is made of truth
I do believe her, though I know she lies,
That she might think me some untutored youth
Unlearned in the world's false subtleties.
Although she knows my days are past the best,
Simply I credit her false speaking tongue;
On both sides thus is simple truth suppressed.
O, I lie with her, and she lies with me,
In our faults by lies we flattered be.
But wherefore says she not she is unjust?
And wherefore say not I that I am old?
O, love's best habit is in seeming trust,
I lie with her, and she lies with me,
In our faults by lies we flattered be.
