He must have been telling a lie lyrics

I see it written in his eyes

the fear that I will cut him down in size

I'll never try to make him crawl

he'll know if he's deserves to walk on tall

Revenge is sweet or so we're told

but even sweeter when it's served up cold

he looks at me and says because

I look at him and miss the man he was

Everyone but me has seen them painting the town

turning every head and my world upside down

whispering all his tender words wrapped up in a sigh

when he said them to me

he must have been telling a lie

My golden rule has been in life

when someone's hurting you don't twist the knife

he looks at me and says I wish

I look at him and see a sea full of fish

Everyone but me has seen them painting the town

turning every head and my world upside down

whispering all his tender words wrapped up in a sigh

when he said them to me

he must have been telling a lie

She fills my hour steals my days

leaving me so empty handed

she never planned to be a one-life stand

but she was his and he was hers

two lovers walking hand in hand
