Sweetest Lie

Goo Goo Dolls · Something for the Rest of Us [2010]

Well you play your part so easily

You fooled yourself again

With your lipstick smeared

Across some face you'll never see again



And I sat there in the corner

Working back my memories

And I wondered if the time would come

You'd get around to me



Oh oh, oh oh

Living the sweetest lie

Oh oh, oh oh

Living the sweetest lie



You made me feel electric

Every moment that we shared

But the lights went out when I realized

You never even cared



So I picked myself back up

I didn't know where I had been

And the thing that makes it seem so wrong

Is I want you back again



Oh oh, oh oh

Living the sweetest lie, yeah

Come on baby, give me love

Oh oh, oh oh

Living the sweetest lie, yeah

Come on baby, give me love



You know you'll never be taken

Your love will never be taken now

And now you're tired of waking

Oh, you're tired of waking up



Oh oh, oh oh

Living the sweetest lie, yeah

Come on baby, give me love

Oh oh, oh oh

Living the sweetest lie, yeah

Come on baby, give me love
