Rather Hear Her Lies Back to Main Page

My friends all tell me let her go and she'll come runnin' back.

My friends don't know I'm in too deep, I'm too far gone for that.

I love her so much, sometimes I think I'll lose my mind.

But I'd rather hear her lies than see her leaving.

Yes I'd rather hear her say, "I still love you."

When I know there's someone else that she loves more.

And I know that loving her might take more love than I can stand.

I would rather hear her lies than see her leaving.

Sometimes at night I lie awake and hear her call his name,

And I reach for her and love her, but it's not quite the same.

She's almost so close and yet so far away,

I would rather have her almost, than loose her all the way.

Yes I'd rather hear her say. "I still need you."

When I know there's someone else that she desires,

And I know that it's a fool who won't see smoke where there's a fire,

But I'd rather hear her lies than see her leaving.

Yes I know that it's a fool who won't see smoke where there's a fire.

But I'd rather hear her lies than see her leaving.
