You tell me lies, lies, lies,
Sweet little lies
When I cannot bear the truth
You tell me lies, lies, lies,
Sweet little lies
Help me make them all come true
Tell me that the rain won't fall today
Tell me that the tax man lost his way
Tell me that the hurtin' ain't gonna hurt no more
(No, it ain’t gonna hurt no more)
Tell me that somebody stopped the war
(Please, tell me...)
[Refrain]
Tell me lies, lies, lies,
Sweet little lies
When I cannot bear the truth
You tell me lies, lies, lies,
Sweet little lies
Help me make them all come true
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,Yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell me that the whole world's wonderful
(Yes, it is)
Tell me that the bank account's too full
Tell me that we all got plenty of time, time, time (tell me somethin’)
Tell me that I ain't gonna lose my mind
Lift me up now
[Refrain]
And you know I'm just a man
With my heart in my hand
You tell me things at home
And go once more and leave me alone
And even though I got no place,
For I'm on the run from the man,
Just hold on to me
Just hold on to me
Every time I need a prayer
Every time I need to share
Every time I need someone
To hold on to
[Refrain]
Help me make them all come true [x5]
