Tell Me A Lie

You only walked into this dart board dive bar

Knowing good and damn well I'd be here

You're only sitting there laughing so hard

'Cause that's the only way you know how to fight tears

And I know there ain't a chance

That you're with him, he's just a friend

I understand, you gotta do what you gotta do, baby

But if it's just me instead, in my head

Way off, dead wrong with everything I been saying

Then tell me a lie

Tell me you ain't as good as gone

Halfway holding on to me

Ease my mind

And lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack

Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like

And it's not what you think

But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that

A-truth in your eyes, I know

So just for tonight

A-tell me a lie

Just tell me that your friends put you up to it

They said you'd get me seeing red in that dress

You look like you know just what you're doing

Taking looks my way just to make me a mess, whoa

A-come on, won't you tell me I ain't no fool

Show me any kind of proof

Even if you have to

A-tell me a lie

Tell me you ain't as good as gone

Halfway holding on to me

Ease my mind

And lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack

Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like

And it's not what you think

But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that

A-truth in your eyes, I know

So just for tonight

A-tell me that you want me back

I'm the best you ever had

The worst thing you ever did was say goodbye

I

So go on and tell me

A-tell me a lie

Tell me you ain't as good as gone

Still holding on to me

Ease my mind

And lord knows the whiskey ain't doing jack

Won't you tell me that it ain't quite what it looks like

And it's not what you think

But I know you and I know I don't wanna believe that

A-truth in your eyes, no, no, no

So just for tonight

A-tell me a lie

A-tell me a lie

A-tell me a lie

A-tell me a lie
