(Steve Leslie/Melba Montgomery)

I said I don't love you,
And I ain't never been your fool
That's a lie, and that's the truth.
And if it's over, makes no difference if we're through
That's a lie, and that's the truth.

I said go on, I'll be just fine
I won't fall apart, or go out of my mind
I said no one could break my heart.
But you're livin' proof
That's a lie, and that's the truth.

--- Instrumental ---

I don't mind the darkness alone in this room
That's a lie, and that's the truth.
I like bein' lonely, yeah, I ain't missin' you
That's a lie, and that's the truth.

I said go on, I'll be just fine
I won't fall apart, or go out of my mind
I said no one could break my heart.
But you're livin' proof
That's a lie, and that's the truth.

And if you found somebody
Who said they love you, more than I do
That's a lie, and that's the truth...
