That's Why I Lie

[Chorus]

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye

[Verse 1]

Don't understand, can't explain, what it is that's causing me to Feel the need to explore any more when I have you

But when I do, there's no truth, baby all I do is lie

The only truth is that lie 'cause I need you in my life

[Chorus]

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye

[Verse 2]

I don't always want you to know where I'm going to, oh, oh

So I sneak out the best way I can for a rendezvous, whoa-oh

I've lied enough to know who I can, and can not fool

So I cross my heart, swear it's true, that I'm loving you, whoa

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm doing what I gotta do to keep you

There's one thing, I swear it's true

I don't know what I'd do if I was ever to lose you

Please baby, believe me

And tell me that you'd never, ever leave me

I just don't want to you hear you say good bye

[Chorus]

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye

[Bridge]

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Oh, oh, oh

Whoaaaoh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Oh, oh, oh

Whoaaaoh, oh-oh

[Chorus]

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye

If I told you why, why, why

I'd probably lie, lie, lie

Can't stand to see you cry, cry, cry

All I know is I'll be hurting you if I told you the truth

That's why I lie, lie, lie

You'd got me thinking my, my, my

And it's killing me inside, oh-I

I don't want you saying bye, bye, bye
