Tell Me a Lie

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You only walked into this dart board dive bar Knowing good and damn well I'd be here You're only sitting there laughing so hard 'Cause that's the only way you know how to fight tears [Pre-Chrous] And I know there ain't a chance That you're with him, he's just a friend I understand, you gotta do what you gotta do, baby But if it's just me instead, in my head Way off, dead wrong with everything I been sayin' [Chorus] Then tell me a lie Tell me you ain't as good as gone Halfway holding on to me Ease my mind And Lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like And it's not what you think But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that A truth in your eyes, I know So just for tonight Tell me a lie [Verse 2] Just tell me that your friends put you up to it They said you'd get me seeing red in that dress You look like you know just what you're doing Taking looks my way just to make me a mess Ooh [Pre-Chrous] Come on, won't you tell me I ain't no fool Show me any kind of proof Even if you have to [Chorus] Then tell me a lie Tell me you ain't as good as gone Halfway holding on to me Ease my mind And Lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like And it's not what you think But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that A truth in your eyes, I know So just for tonight [Bridge] Tell me that you want me back I'm the best you ever had The worst thing you ever did was say goodbye, -ey So go on and tell me [Chrous] Then tell me a lie Tell me you ain't as good as gone Still holding on to me Ease my mind And Lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like And it's not what you think But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that A truth in your eyes, no, no, no So just for tonight Then tell me a lie [Outro] Then tell me a lie Then tell me a lie Then tell me a lie
