Lie To Me
Evolove Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Would you whisper in my ear?
Tell me things I want to hear
Tell me that I am the best you've ever had
Even if you have to lie to me
These are words I need to hear right now

Lie to me, tell me what I want to hear
Would you lie to me just to make me feel like I am special?

If you speak the truth and it is not kind, I wish you'd lie to me

Could you look me in the eye?
Tell me you won't say goodbye
Tell me that you'll be forever by my side
Even if you have to lie to me
These are words I need to hear right now

Lie to me, tell me what I want to hear
Would you lie to me just to make me feel like I am special?
If you speak the truth and it is not kind, I wish you'd lie to me

The truth is overrated
The truth gets in the way sometimes
The truth, a hard pill to swallow
Sometimes I wish that you would just lie to me

Tell me what I want to hear
Would you lie to me, just to make me feel like I am special
If you speak the truth and it is not kind I wish you'd lie to me
Lie to me, I wish you would lie to me

Cause if you speak the truth and it is not kind I wish you'd lie to me
Just lie to me
