Lie To Me Lyrics
Shane Mack
Lyrics
Lie of why you're leavin' early
Deny that you're in any hurry
Cry and tell me not to worry
‘Cause what I don't know, is never gonna hurt me
Breathe, now baby don't feel guilty
Deceive me then just walk away
Leave me, the truth will only kill me
It's gotta be, it's gotta be this way
One more bad excuse
Before you turn me lose
Give me something to remember you by
Couldn't you offer me
A little dishonesty
Promise me you'll try
You'll lie to me
Go, your plane is not gonna stay
Slow, so I can take it in
Console, say you'll see me later
When you know you won't see me again
Please before you let go of me
Take me one more time
Appease me, tell me that you love me
That you haven't gone and change your mind
One more bad excuse
Before you turn me lose
Give me something to remember you by
Couldn't you offer me
A little dishonesty
Promise me you'll try
You'll lie to me
Lie of why you're leavin' early
Deny that you're in any hurry
Cry and tell me not to worry
‘Cause what I don't know, is never gonna hurt me
One more bad excuse
Before you turn me lose
Give me something to remember you by
Couldn't you offer me
A little dishonesty
Promise me you'll try
You'll lie to me
