Coco Chanel No. 5 lyrics
by Kevin Drew
[Chorus]
I could tell the truth
Or I could tell a lie
Or say the right thing
At the right time
[Verse 1]
We started out writing good letters back and forth
Me in Memphis recording
Yours were scented with Coco No. 5
We wrote stimulating things
[Chorus]
I could tell the truth
Or I could tell a lie
Or say the right thing
At the right time
[Verse 2]
Like I miss you so much in person and up close
When we f*cked till we fought
Away from each other, we could manage to see
Just what it was that we got
[Verse 3]
In absentia, we were better off
Finding new places to stand
Finding new signs of resignation
For the wishes we shared
[Chorus]
I could tell the truth
Or I could tell a lie
Or say the right thing
At the right time
