Shall I tell you what he said to you When he kissed you last night I could tell it sigh for sigh And here's the reason why He says the same things to me He says the same things to me And shall I tell you what he said to you As he held you so tight Let me tell you from the start I know it now by heart He says the same things to me He says the same things to me But I know how it must hurt you To find his love isn't real And if your heart is breaking Think how I must feel And did he tell you, there's no other girl That his only love is you If he did, there's no surprise That's just the way he lies He says the same things to me He says the same things to me
