Lie to Me
Lady Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I felt this coming for a month or two
You don't look at me like you used to do
So when you leave it's going to be too soon
Give me a minute, while we're still in it

Lie with me, hold me like you need it
Kiss me like you're loving only me tonight
Make me feel like it ain't over
Go a little slower, baby, one last time
It ain't the truth's gonna set me free
Come on, come on, lie with me

Go put your favorite MoTown record on
Do what we need to feel it all night long
Make me believe you ain't already gone
Let's make our last time, our best time

Lie with me, hold me like you need it
Kiss me like you're loving only me tonight
Make me feel like it ain't over
Go a little slower, baby, one last time
It ain't the truth's gonna set me free
Come on, come on, lie with me

Baby lie with me

Love me like you mean it, like you really
You owe me that much now
Don't leave me here with nothing
Give me something, baby what's the rush now?

Lie with me, hold me like you mean it
Kiss me like you're loving only me tonight
Make me feel like it ain't over
Go a little slower, baby, one last time

Lie with me, hold me like you mean it
Kiss me like you're loving only me tonight
Make me feel like it ain't over
Go a little slower, baby, one last time
It ain't the truth's gonna set me free
Come on, come on, lie with me





Lie with me, lie with me

What you want me to say?
I ain't got nothing left for you
Nothing left to lose
Save let loose
Ends lie still
Cause you still look good
When you lie to me
And anything in-between
How you gon' do me like that
When you walk so bad
Walk so bad
Lady
Love it when you lean like that
And you look so bad
Walk so bad
No
Lay it down hard, and you ante up babe
She's addicted to the prettier things
All but over you
Over you
Over
Baby, what you got to lose
Come stay
With me
Leave it on the low
But lady don't lie
To me
No you really don't
Really don't
Hurt so bad
Hurt so bad
When you move your lips, move your body like
I'm all over you
Over you
Over
Baby, what you got to lose
Come stay
Fly
Lady lie with me (Oooh)
You're bourbon in my eyes
A bird in my hands
A bird in my hands,
Bourbon to my head
A bird in my eyes,
A flight risk
Lying on my come-up
We're hung up on these nights
You're hung over knees like
You needed the relapse
Need this, need that
Need it when you can't have
Whatchu wanna do about it?
Whatchu wanna take back?
How you gon' do me like that
When you walk so bad
Walk so bad
Lady
Love it when you lean like that
And you look so bad
Walk so bad
No
Lay it down hard, and you ante up babe
She's addicted to the prettier things
All but over you
Over you
Over
Baby, what you got to lose
Come stay
With me
Leave it on the low
But lady don't lie
To me
No, you really don't
Really don't
Hurt so bad
Hurt so bad
When you move your lips
Move your body like
I'm all over you
Over you
Over
Baby, what you got to lose
Come and stay
Fly
Lady, lie with me
Stay
Fly
Lady, lie with me
You're bourbon in my eyes
A bird in my hands
A bird in my hands,
Bourbon to my head
A bird in my eyes,
A flight risk lying

I will do the honor of looking up the beautiful poetry that is these lyrics.

What you want me to say? I ain't got nothing left for you. Nothing left to lose, save let loose
Ends lie still, cause you still look good when you lie to me, and anything in-between
How you gon do me like that when you walk so bad? Walk so bad, lady
Love it when you lean like that and you look so bad, walk so bad, (no)
Lay it down hard, and you ante up babe, she's addicted to the prettier things, and all but
Over you, over you, over. Baby what you got to lose? Come

Stay with me, leave it on the low, but lady don't
Lie to me, no you really don't, really don't
Hurt so bad, hurt so bad, when you move your lips, move your body like I'm all
Over you, over you, over. Baby what you got to lose? Come
Stay fly, lady lie with me (Oooh)
You're bourbon in my eyes, a bird in my hands
A bird in my hands, bourbon to my head
A bird in my eyes, a flight risk

Lying on my come-up, we're hung up on these nights
Hung over knees like you needed the relapse
You need this, need that, need it when you can't have
Whatchu wanna do about it? Whatchu gonna take back?
How you gon do me like that when you walk so bad? Walk so bad, lady
Love it when you lean like that and you look so bad, walk so bad, (no)
Lay it down hard, and you ante up babe, she's addicted to the prettier things, and all but
Over you, over you, over. Baby what you got to lose? Come
Stay with me, leave it on the low, but lady don't
Lie to me, no you really don't, really don't
Hurt so bad, hurt so bad, when you move your lips, move your body like I'm all
Over you, over you, over. Baby what you got to lose? Come
Stay fly, lady lie with me
Stay fly, lady lie with me
You're bourbon in my eyes, a bird in my hands
A bird in my hands, bourbon to my head
A bird in my eyes, a flight risk lying

Aos brasileiros, aqui a tradução:

O que você quer que eu diga? Não tenho mais nada para você, nada mais a perder, exceto soltar
As pontas ficam quietas, porque você ainda parece bem quando mente para mim, e qualquer coisa intermediária
Como você vai fazer isso comigo quando você anda tão mal? Caminhe tão mal, senhora
Adoro quando você se inclina assim e você parece tão mal, anda tão mal, (não)
Deite-o com força, e você se aninha, ela é viciada nas coisas mais bonitas, e tudo, menos
Sobre você, sobre você, sobre você, sobre, amor, o que você tem a perder? Venha

Fique comigo, deixe-o em baixo, mas a senhora não
Mente-me, não você realmente não mente, realmente não mente
Dói tanto, dói tanto, quando você move seus lábios, move seu corpo como se eu fosse todo
Sobre você, sobre você, sobre você, sobre, amor, o que você tem a perder? Venha

Fique deitado comigo, senhora (oh)
Você é um bourbon em meus olhos, um pássaro em minhas mãos
Um pássaro em minhas mãos, bourbon na minha cabeça
Um pássaro em meus olhos, um risco de voo

Deitados em cima de mim, ficamos pendurados nestas noites
Pendurado de joelhos como se você precisasse da recidiva
Você precisa disso, precisa disso quando não pode ter
O que fazer quanto a isso? O que você vai levar de volta?
Como você vai me fazer assim quando você anda tão mal? Caminhe tão mal, senhora
Adoro quando você se inclina assim e parece tão mal
Deite-o com força, e você se aninha, ela é viciada nas coisas mais bonitas, e tudo menos
Sobre você, sobre você, sobre, amor, o que você tem a perder? Venha

Fique comigo, deixe-o em baixo, mas a senhora não
Minha pra mim, não você realmente não mente, realmente não mente
Dói tanto, dói tanto, quando você move seus lábios, move seu corpo como se eu fosse todo
Sobre você, sobre você, sobre você, sobre você. Querido, o que você tem a perder? Venha

Fique deitada comigo
Fique deitada comigo
Você é um pássaro em meus olhos, nas minhas mãos
Um pássaro nas minhas mãos, whisky nos meus olhos
Um pássaro nos meus olhos, o risco de um voo deitado
