That's A Lie

(Debbie Hennessey)
written by Kim Richey & Tim Krekel
That's A Lie

I let the porch light burn all night
‘Til the early morning light
But you never did come by
And now you’re calling me
Just to say you need
A little room to breathe

chorus: Well that’s a lie you tell yourself so I can’t touch you
That’s a lie to shut me out but it’s just not true
Can’t you see you’re not foolin’ me a bit
Yeah, you can try to tell me you don’t care but I know
That’s a lie

Well you never will be free
If you let her memory
Get all tangled up with me
I’m sorry for your pain
But I won’t take the blame
All women aren’t the same

chorus: Well that’s a lie you tell yourself so I can’t touch you
That’s a lie to shut me out but it’s just not true
Can’t you see you’re not foolin’ me a bit
Yeah, you can try to tell me you don’t care but I know
That’s a lie

bridge: You say you like to be alone
You do just fine all on your own

chorus: Well that’s a lie you tell yourself so I can’t touch you
That’s a lie to shut me out but it’s just not true
Can’t you see you’re not foolin’ me a bit
Yeah, you can try to tell me you don’t care but I know
That’s a lie
