Lies
Little Hurricane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you’re with me baby, I see right through your lies
When you’re with me baby, I see right through your lies

I’m not talking about last summer, not talking about the fall

Ya you fooled me once, but know you don’t at all




Overall Meaning

The song "Lies" by Little Hurricane is a blues and rock song that portrays a situation where the singer is in a relationship with someone who he knows is dishonest with him. The two lines, "When you're with me baby, I see right through your lies," repeat in the song, and signify the singer's disillusionment with the relationship. The repetition of the same line twice emphasizes the strong emotions that the singer is feeling.


The following line, "I'm not talking about last summer, not talking about the fall" suggests that the deceitful behavior had been occurring for quite some time, but the singer didn't realize it until recently. This also suggests that the singer had been in a romantic relationship with this person for at least half a year. The lyrics suggest a sense of betrayal on the singer's part, and he's now wary of any promises that the other person may make. He knows that they've lied to him before, and he doesn't trust them anymore.


Finally, when the singer says, "Ya you fooled me once, but now you don't at all," he's acknowledging that he had been deceived before, but now he's not. He's finally seeing the reality of the situation, and now he knows that he can't trust this person anymore. This song represents the emotions of someone who is struggling in a romantic relationship and feeling deceived.
