You Didn't Say that We Could Lie

You didn’t say that we could lie
The night you came to me and said goodbye

You said you’d never want to cry

But you didn’t say that we could lie


You didn’t say
that we could cheat

When we were wrapped up in your dirty bedsheets

You might’ve said “I love you sweet”

But you didn’t say that we could cheat

You didn’t say that we could lie
And you didn’t say that we could cheat

You said you’d never known defeat

But you didn’t say that we could lie

You didn’t say that we could lie

The night you came to me and said goodbye
How much of a fool was I?

You didn’t say that we could lie
