Tender Lies

As you walk away
As we say goodbye
What I wouldn't give
For a tender lie

Say you'll never stop loving me
Just as if it were true
How much more damage now, honestly
Can one tender lie do?

And when we fought so hard
Are we wrong to try
To fight off the truth
With a tender lie?

Say you're gonna come back to me
And I'll believe that it's true
How much more damage now honestly
Can one tender lie do?

When we loved before
Do you still deny?
Keeping out the truth
With a tender lie

Say you'll never stop loving me
Just as if it were true
How much more damage now honestly
Can one tender lie do?

Say you'll never stop loving me
Just as if it were true
How much more damage now...
