(Someone's Been) Telling You Stories

Dan Fogelberg · Souvenirs [1974]

So you've heard I've been flyin? and tryin? to get into somebody new

And I'm off on a new love and don't hardly ever think about you

He's gotten so cold, he ain't the same old lover you used to know

He's in a nose dive barely half alive and just about to let go



Someone's been telling you stories

Someone's been telling you stories

Someone's been telling you stories

And they just ain't true, they just ain't true

No, they just ain't true, they just ain't true



So you heard I got laid and betrayed by a maid in a one night stand

And I'm caught in the middle of something I don't really understand

He's gotten so lost he's been double crossed by a change in the wind

He's gone solo again and he can't slow down now to pick up a friend



Someone's been telling you stories

Someone's been telling you stories

Someone's been telling you stories

And they just ain't true, they just ain't true

No, they just ain't true, they just ain't true



So you've heard I've been flyin? and tryin? to get into somebody new

And I'm off on a new love and don't hardly ever think about you

He's gotten so cold, he ain't the same old lover you used to know

He's gone so cold again, he's just using you just to sell out a show



Someone's been telling you stories

Someone's been telling you stories

Someone's been telling you stories

And they just ain't true, they just ain't true

Oh, no, they just ain't true, they just ain't true
