[Verse 1: Faith Hill]
Yeah I know that you will always look away
When you don't know what to say
And you've been looking a lot lately
Yeah, we both know it might be a mistake
So even when we're bound to break
You still catch me when I'm fading
Wide awake at night knowing it ain't right
We both realize it might be over
Kills my heart to know you're gon' have to go
While you break it slow just let me hold you
'Cause I know

[Chorus: Faith Hill]
You must really love me to lie to me
Must really love me to lie to me
Must really love me to lie, lie to me
You make letting me go looking so easy
When I know that it can't be
You must really love me to lie, lie to me
Mmmm

[Verse 2: Faith Hill, Both]
Early days, had a crown up on our heads
King and queen with no regrets
And the kingdom was worth saving
Something changed
Now you're lying through your teeth
When you're lying next to me
Only pains when you're explainin'
Oh, I know, yeah I know now
[Chorus: Tim McGraw & Faith Hill]
You must really love me to lie to me
Must really love me to lie to me
Must really love me to lie, lie to me
You make letting me go looking so easy
When I know that it can't be
You must really love me to lie, lie (lie) to me
To me, ooh

[Bridge: Faith Hill]
Wide awake at night knowing it ain't right
We both realize it might be over
Kills my heart to know you gon' have to go
While you break it slow just let me hold you
'Cause I know...

[Chorus: Tim McGraw & Faith Hill]
You must really love me to lie to me
Must really love me to lie to me
Must really love me to lie, (to lie) lie (lie)
You make letting me go looking so easy
When I know that it can't be
You must really love me to lie, to lie
Oh, to lie
