Lyrics
Lie To You
I did the wrong thing today. I did it all the wrong way.
There is no hell to pay; I did not tell a soul.
If no one finds my mistake,
Then did I make a clean getaway?
Can I keep what I take - if no one ever knows?
Do you wanna believe me?
Can you trust me to tell?
Do you think I can keep your secrets,
When you know me so well?
Chorus
Yes, I am a liar - but I would not lie to you.
I'd throw myself on the fire, but I'd never lie to you.
I thought the wrong thing today. A devil on my shoulder told me to.
There is no hell to pay, I did not tell a soul.
If I should tell you my mistake,
Then did I make a clean getaway?
Can I keep what I take if no one ever knows?
Do you wanna believe me?
Can you trust me to tell?
Do you think I can keep your secrets,
When you know me so well?
Chorus (repeat)
