• why do you have to lie?
    why make up all those alibis
    you just have to say goodbye
    let me walk away and cry

    you said you love me but,
    fine with me, I can live with that
    you asked for some space
    I heeded and gone back to my place

    why do you have to lie?
    why make up all those alibis
    you just have to say goodbye
    let me walk away and cry

    a week later I called to say hi
    you told me you needed more time
    I held back, let you be alone
    knowing everything’s just fine

    why do you have to lie?
    why make up all those alibis
    you just have to say goodbye
    let me walk away and cry

    a month, you haven’t return my calls
    confuse I am looking at the walls
    I decided to surprise you and all
    bringing wine and some chicken rolls

    but to my surprise you weren’t alone
    you were with someone new all along

    why do you have to lie?
    why make up all those alibis
    you just have to say goodbye
    let me walk away and cry

    two years have passed by
    you called me to say hi
    telling me you’re sorry and cried
    and that you were so blind

    it’s all behind me now, I have a good life
    now that I have somebody to hold at night

    I don’t need to lie
    I will not make up alibis
    I’ll just say goodbye
    let you walk away and cry
