Cover a Steemian - "Lie to Me" by @meno - Acoustic version by @pain...

This is my cover of "Lie to Me" by Hive account@meno, as I am participating in the #coverasteemian initiative.

I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it, and knew that I would eventually want to cover it. It's so pretty.

Meno's version is much more detailed and electric, but I'd never be able to do it justice that way. So, acoustic it is..

Meno, I could not hit the powerful high notes you so skillfully mastered in the last verses, and I had to change the chords around a little bit in places so I could stay in key.. but I'm pretty happy with this cover! My heart is fully there.

Much respect!♥

Much love also to Hive account@pechichemena, who created the Cover a Steemian project. It's such a beautiful way to pay tribute to independent musicians on Steemit. Thank you, Pechi. ♥

Lyrics

I'm looking for a reason to touch your hands
I'm searching for the seasons I'm writing down my plan

cause in my mind you live with me
and in my heart you never leave
lets pretend you 't have to go
and let me kiss you, don't say no

and lie, please lie
to me
and lie, your lies
can set this writer.. free
and tell me that you miss me
as much as I do
and tell me I'm not crazy
for dreaming about you
please just lie to me

I really want to touch you
but I know that I cant
I really want to hold you
and be called your man

'cause in my mind you live with me
and in my heart you never leave
lets pretend you don't have to go
and let me kiss you, don't say no

and lie, please lie
to me
and lie, your lies
can set this writer free
and tell me that you miss me
as much as I do
and tell me im not crazy
for dreaming about you

and lie, please lie
to me

and lie, your lies
can set this writer free

and tell me that you miss me
as much as I do
and tell me I'm not crazy
for dreaming about you

please just lie to me
