I Lie

(Thomas W. Damphier)



What would you do if you knew how I was feelin'

I wonder what you'd have to say

Afraid of the answers I'm not takin' any chances

I don't want to scare you away.



Oh, so I lie

Oh yes, I lie, uh, huh

I don't wanna let you know

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 denyin' all the love that I've been hidin'

I don't want to tell you the truth.



Oh, so I lie

Oh yes, I lie, uh, huh

I don't wanna let you know

I don't wanna let you know 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

Oh yes, I lie, uh, huh

I don't wanna let you know

I don't wanna let you go so I lie.



Oh, yes I lie...
