I see the writing on the wall The love light's gone from your eyes You're telling me little white lies It seems you're not at home Each time I call (each time you call) I guess that I'd be a fool Not to know your heart's grown cruel I see the writing on the wall (on the wall) It's not too hard to read between the lines, dear So plain to see love didn't conquer all It's not too hard to recognize the signs, dear I see the writing on the wall (writing on the wall) Friends say, this won't be the end You'll want my love again But my heart knows better than them all (better than them all) This time I feel it's goodbye Excuse me if I cry But I see the writing on the wall (on the wall) It's not too hard to read between the lines, dear It's plain to see love didn't conquer all It's not too hard to recognize the signs, dear I see the writing on the wall I see the writing on the wall
