lyrics

Lyrics: Written by Harry Rose
Baby we need to talk about something
I’ve had on my mind
I’ve got a feeling it’s not good news
Well I’ve felt this for a while, and it’s about time

To come clean with how I really feel
I won’t hear your objections
All of the little white lies I’ve told
Have been for your protection

They say that honesty is the best policy
But not for you and me

Cause we lie, we lie, we lie, we lie
We say we’ll never leave
Tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe
And as we lie here in this bed
All that we can do is deceive
So tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe
I’ll believe

And you know I love that way
You flirt with other guys
I swear it’s not what it looks like
Yeah, I know that look. I’ve seen those eyes

And I think it’s wonderful how
I’ve lost all my friends
Just you and me and a box of wine
Does the fun ever end?

Those guys just held me back, but now I’m freed
Because you are all I need

Or so we lie, we lie, we lie, we lie
We say we’ll never leave
Tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe
And as we lie here in this bed
All that we can do is deceive
So tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe

I’ll be leaving you tonight
Float a message in a bottle
Somewhere I’m sure you’ll find
And if you can still read
Once you’ve sucked the contents dry
It’ll say goodbye

But we still lie, we lie, we lie, we lie
We say we’ll never leave
So tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe
And as we lie here in this bed
All that we can do is deceive
So tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe

Oh yeah we lie, we lie, we lie, we lie
We say we’ll never leave
(We lie, we lie, we lie we lie)
So tell me what I wanna hear
And I promise I’ll believe
I’ll believe
