[Verse 1]
We lie in the dark I know you're awake
The only sounds are the sounds this old house makes
Oh, how I long, I long to hear your voice
Desperate to talk, yearning to touch
Burning inside 'cause I want you so much
So I say I need you and leave you no choice

[Chorus]
You lie, you don't wanna hurt me
So you lie, buy a little time and I go along
What else can I do? Maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you
So you lie 'til you can find a way to say goodbye
You lie

[Verse 2]
How long until you just can't go on?
And the urge to break loose is just too strong
You should let go that's what you wanna do
Oh, but you don't know, you don't know
If it's the right thing to do

[Chorus]
So you lie, you don't wanna hurt me
So you lie, buy a little time and I go along
What else can I do? Maybe it's wrong
But you know how much I love you
So you lie 'til you can find a way to say goodbye
Oh, you lie
You lie
Oh, you lie
Oh, you lie
