Lie
가비앤제이 (Gavy N.J.) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, you can talk to the governor,
Talk to a prince
Talk to a preacher or the president
Some people lie, some people lie and deceive

When they say one thing,
They mean something else completely
I had me a woman, love me to the end
Two days later she was with another man

Some people lie, some people lie and deceive
But sometime later, they'll get theirs, yes sirree
Well, I bought me a new car, a lemon, no doubt
The wheels fell off, the salesman he was out

People lie, people lie and deceive
When they say one thing,
They mean something else completely
The bottom line, you understand

When some people talk,
You can't believe what they're saying
People lie, people lie and deceive
When they say one thing,





They mean something else completely

헤매다 헤매다
다시 찾아가는 그대란 자리
잊은 줄 알았는데
두 발이 날 이끌어
결국엔
그리워 그리워
꿈에서 조차 그댈 부르고
잡힐 듯 그댄 흐린 미소만 흘리는데

love is a lie
love is a lie

그래도 버리진 못하는 걸
질기게 따라온 추억을 잘라내도
또 그대만 자라는데

love is a dream
love is a pain

눈물로 사랑아 돌아와줘
사랑했잖아 전부였잖아
내 삶은 너 하나 뿐이잖아

지우다 지우다
눈물이 다시 그댈 그리고
시간은 점점 그댈 가슴에 가두는데


love is a lie
love is a lie

그대도 버리진 못하는 걸
질기게 따라온 추억을 잘라내도
또 그대만 자라는데

love is a dream
love is a pain

눈물난 사랑아 돌아와줘
사랑했잖아 전부였잖아
내 삶은 너 하나 뿐이잖아

(narration)

숨을 쉴 때마다 그대 생각에
하루하루가 지나가고

love is a heart
love is a prime

가려도 그대만 보이는 걸
머리는 자리난 그대를 비워내도
또 그대만 채우는데

love is a dream
love is a pain

눈물로 사랑아 돌아와줘
사랑했잖아 전부였잖아
내 삶은 너 하나 뿐이잖아
