I said it was over

I said we were through

I said when I left I

Was done loving you

But I'm fighting a feeling

That can't be denied

Forget what I told you

The truth is I lied

I know you weren't expectin'

This visit from me

With my hat in my hand and

My heart on my sleeve

But I've stopped my pretending

And I've swallowed my pride

I'm not above saying

The truth is I lied

The truth is I'm not quite

As strong as I thought

This battle is harder

Any war that we've fought

I said I could just push

Your memory aside

I meant it when I said it

But the truth is I lied

Is it asking to much to

Forget and forgive

Dying for your love

Is no way to live

And the truth is I'm just not

As strong as I thought

This battle is harder

Any war that we've fought

I said I could just push

Your memory aside

I meant it when I said it

But the truth is I lied

Oh, I meant it when I said it

That the truth is I lied
