song lyrics
"I'd Rather Hear You Lie"
by Lester Norton
You told me you were mine
And that you'd always love me
You said that you'd be true
And that we'd never part
But now you're showing signs
Of things you want to tell me
That's why I'm asking you
To protect my foolish heart
'cuz I'd rather hear you lie
Than to say that you don't love me
I'd rather that you said
Everything that wasn't true
I'd rather hear you lie
Than to tell me you don't need me
I'd rather hear you lie
So I can keep on loving you
Don't bother with a call
Now, don't you try and phone me
I've ripped out all the lines
I won't answer anymore
I spend my time alone
My friends they all disowned me
I hid myself away
So, I'll never have to know
I'd rather hear you lie
Than to say that you don't love me
I'd rather that you said
Everything that wasn't true
I'd rather hear you lie
Than to tell me you don't need me
I'd rather hear you lie
So I can keep on loving you
I'd rather hear you lie
So I can keep on loving you
