I Lied Lyrics by Dave Hollister

Real Talk

2003

[Intro]
Whoa, oh, whoa-oh, mmm, whoa-oh
Can somebody sing with me? Oh
Whoa (Oh), whoa-oh (Oh), whoa-oh (Mmm), whoa-oh (Mmm)

[Verse 1]
Sometimes you would wonder if someone else was on my mind
(I don't know what to tell you, baby)
I couldn't just tell you. How could I tell you? So I lied
Tryna save something I wasn't being true to, so blind
(I was so blind, baby)
I know that you know, but how did you know?

[Chorus]
(I lied) Even when I knew you knew the truth
(I lied) Didn't know what you would do
(So I lied) Oh, to your face I lied
(Say it again, oh-ooh)
(I lied) Even when I saw the pictures on the bed
(I lied) You knew my every move and things I said
(I lied) Mmm, to your face, I lied, oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Late nights, I would come in well after three and hadn't called one time
You better not trip on me 'cause I might leave you (And walk away)
In spite of all the things I put you through
I'm a fool, yeah-yeah (I'm a fool)
I know that you know, but how did you know?

[Chorus]
(I lied) Even when I knew you knew the truth
(I lied) Didn't know what you would do
(So I lied) Oh, to your face I lied
(Well, well, well, well, mmm)
(I lied) Even when I saw the pictures on the bed
(I lied) You knew my every move and things I said
(I lied) Ooh, to your face, I lied
(Y'all listen real close now)

[Verse 3]
Noonday, the mailman had a special delivery for you
(What could it be? What could it be?)
You opened it and screamed (Oh)
'Cause you saw me, yeah yeah (Yes, you did; yes, you did)
Checking out of Le Meridian with some floosie
(She wasn't worth my time)
I know that you know, but how did you know?

[Chorus]
(I lied) Even when I knew you knew the truth
(I lied) Didn't know what you would do
(So I lied) Mmm, to your face I lied
(Somebody help me out this evening)
(I lied) Even when I saw the pictures on the bed
(I lied) You knew my every move and things I said
(I lied) Ooh, mmm, to your face, I lied (Say)

[Bridge]
I know the truth may let you down
But it's better than finding out from someone else
(Oh, oh, oh yeah, I know, baby)
I know the pain is still the same
But I should've been a man instead of fooling myself
(I was a fool, yeah)

[Chorus]
(I lied) Even when I knew you knew the truth
(I lied) Didn't know what you would do
(Said I'm sorry, baby, sorry, sorry, baby)
(So I lied) Oh, to your face I lied
(Who dropped dime on me?)
(Say it again, oh-ooh)
(I lied) Even when I saw the pictures on the bed
(I lied) You knew my every move and things I said
(Who told you, baby? Wanna know, gotta know)
(I lied) To your face, I lied (Yeah)

[Outro]
I lied, and I'm sorry
But I lied, please forgive me
I lied
