Loretta Lynn
"I Lie" lyrics

I Lie

What would you do
If you knew how I was feeling?
I wonder what you'd have to say
Afraid of the answers
I'm not taking any chances
I don't want
To scare you away

Oh, so I lie
Oh, oh
Yes, I lie
Ooh
I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna let you know
So I lie

Here in my heart
I can hold on to this secret
I'm hoping
That you won't see through
I don't like denying
All the love that I've been hiding
I don't want
To tell you the truth

Oh, so I lie
Oh, oh
Yes, I lie
Ooh
I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna let you know
So I lie

It's not easy to deceive you
It's so hard to keep from saying
I love you

Oh, so I lie
Oh, oh
Yes, I lie
Ooh
I don't wanna let you know
I don't wanna let you go
So I lie
Oh, oh
Yes, I lie
