What would you do if you knew how I was feeling?
I wonder what you'd have to say
Afraid of the answers, I'm not taking any chances
I don't want to scare you away

Oh, so I lie (I lie)
Oh, yes I lie (I lie)
Ooh, I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna let you know, so I lie

Here in my heart, I can hold on to this secret
I'm hopin' that you won't see through
I don't like denying all the love that I've been hiding
I don't want to tell you the truth

Oh, so I lie (I lie)
Oh, yes I lie (I lie)
Ooh, I don't wanna let you know
I don't wanna let you go, so I lie

It's not easy to deceive you
It's so hard to keep from saying I love you

Oh, so I lie (I lie)
Oh, yes I lie (I lie)
Ooh, I don't wanna let you know
I don't wanna let you go, so I lie
(I lie)
Oh, yes I lie
