THE TRUTH IS I LIED

|
I said it was over
|
I said we were through
|
I said when I left I
|
Was done loving you
|
But I'm fighting a feeling
|
that cant be denied
|
Forget what I told you
|
the truth is I lied
|
I know you weren¡¯t expectin¡¯
|
This visit from me
|
With my hat in my hand and
|
My heart on my sleeve
|
But I've stopped my pretending
|
And I¡¯ve swallowed my pride
|
I'm not above saying
|
The truth is I lied
|
The truth is I¡¯m not quite as strong as
|
I thought this battle is harder
|
than an war that we've fought
|
I said I could just push your memory aside
|
I meant it when I said it but the truth is i lied
|
is it asking to much to forget and forgive
|
Dying for your love
|
Is no way to live
|
and the truth is I¡¯m just not as strong as I thought
|
this battle is harder
|
Than any war that we've fought
|
I said I could just push your memory aside
|
I meant it when I said it but the truth is I lied
|
Oh, I meant it when I said it, the truth is I lied
