I lied so you would look at me I lied so you would know That I lied because I love you And I’m not gonna let you go I lied so I could cover up All of the reasons you would say, “no” And I lied so you wouldn’t know That I lied not so long ago I lied because I love the way You look into my eyes And I lied so I could stop Those painful and heart aching cries And I also lied because you lied And I wanted to even the score I lied so I could avoid hurting The heart I so much adore But I mostly lie because I love you And I didn’t wanna see you cry But can you really say That you don’t lie If you looked into my eyes? You couldn’t Because that would be a lie But lying is part of our nature It’s what makes us who we are But we can lie all of the time Because it would leave an inner scare
