A Tender Lie

As you walk away

As we say goodbye;

What I wouldn't give

For a tender lie

(CHORUS)

Say you'll never stop loving me

Just as if it were true

How much damage now, honestly

Could one tender lie do?

When we fall so far

Are we wrong to try;

To fight off the truth

With a tender lie

Say you're gonna come back to me

And I'll believe that it's true

How much damage now, honestly

Could one tender lie do?

When we loved before

Do you still deny;

Keeping out the truth

With a tender lie?

(CHORUS)
