As her key unlocks the front door I reach out to find a light so she can see Then I wait to hear her story Why she stayed out late tonight & she tells me That it really wasn't her fault If she'd had her ways she'd have been home hours ago That's when her tears start to flowin' And she swears it's true but in my heart I know When I'm sure that I've convinced her That I believe her story then I turn away I don't let her know she's hurt me 'Cause the words stick in my throat I want to say And I'm so afraid I'll lose her If she knew I knew the truth she just might go So I listen to her story Try to hide the hurt, but in my heart I know She's lying, there's not a word of truth in her crying And still I've got this awful urge to take her in my arms and hold her tight God, I know she's lying, a little more of me keeps on dying Oh how I wish that I could be the one that she's been lyin' with tonight Instead of me I'd rather be the one that she's been lyin' with tonight She's lying
