"I'm Afraid I Lied" lyrics

I'm Afraid I Lied

Yes, I know
I told you
I could take it
If you ever
Had to tell me
Goodbye

But now you're leaving
And I don't think
I can make it
Forgive me
But I'm afraid
I lied

I'm so thankful
For every
Stolen moment
And I promised
That I
Wouldn't cry

But now you're leaving
And there goes
My promise
Forgive me
But I'm afraid
I lied

We both knew
Our love
Couldn't work out
But we just
Had to try it
For size

We agreed
At anytime
We could stop it
Maybe you can
But I'm afraid
I lied

Maybe you can
But I'm afraid
I lied
