(t. bryn)

girls lie to boys and boys lie to girls

he says, "i've been at the office, papers up to here"

but he smells like beer

she says, "its okay"

he thinks she doesn't know - women always know

chorus

but i'm gonna be the one to break all those rules

i think those people are fools

scandal's nothing new

what good is the truth if we never use it?

you've just got to trust me sometimes

"trust me" he says in the dark

she's saved it all this time

but to him it's worth a dime

she found out the hard way you get the kisses then

the tears

to think she'd saved is all these years

you've just got to trust me sometime

repeat chorus

i may leave you but i will never lie

she said, "i will love you forever, baby, you are my home"

but five years later he's alone

with some kids and a car - his only warmth from the

heater

he wondered how he believed her

repeat chorus

fade out:

i didn't tell you because i didn't want to hurt you
