I Shoulda Lied Lyrics
i probably should have told her the sky was falling
or maybe that my car ran out of gas
my grandma was sick and i had to leave town right away
i don't care
tell one more to fix the last one
but i never get back to the truth
thinking to myself she'll never find out that's what we do, that's how we
do
i wonder what she really thinks of me
should i really tell her everything?
but it's too late
can't take it back
she'll never look at me the same way again, no
chorus:
i shoulda lied, 'cause the truth made her set me free
and now goodbye, is more than just a word
my honesty just became my enemy
maybe a lie would
have made things right this time, shoulda lied, shoulda lied
shoulda say it was the end of the world
now sadly it's my reality
would she stay if i said i only had one day left
stay with me
please don't leave
i wonder what she really thinks of me
i wish i would have never said a thing
but it's too late for that, i don't think she's coming back
and i'll never look at truth the same again

i shoulda lied, 'cause the true made her set me free
and now goodbye, is more than just a word
my honesty just became my enemy
maybe a lie would've made things right this time, shoulda lied, shoulda
lied
now i'm tryin hard to convince my heart
that everything will be ok
she said she'd never leave
now i just can't believe she's gone
and now i'm no one.
promised myself next time i won't tell the truth
'cause if i knew what i knew right now i'd still be with you
i shoulda lied, shoulda lied, shoulda lied, shoulda lied.
