Just To Lie Songtext
von Greensky Bluegrass

You and I both appear
We already made the deal
By the time I changed my mind
Couldn′t make the sense to find
A reason that I left you running
To keep you from the things I'm saying
Saying just to get you naked
I just want for you to trust me
I told you that I love you
Just so I could lie beside you
Knew you′d understand I'm leaving
That it's been this way before


Trying hard to make it work
The only things that measure what I′m
Reaching for is really worth
And to keep from losing faith
I′ve been lost in sleeping pills
Worried that I'm overdriven
Moments I′m alone in thinking
Wishing that there was someone
I told you that I love you
Just so I could lie beside you
Knew you'd understand I′m leaving
That it's been this way before

In the same room finally searching
Looking for another reason
You and I should be together
Don′t act like you have surrendered
This is not a love affair
Neither one of us should start
To thinking that I'm settling for you
It's just like the first time
I told you that I love you
Just so I could lie beside you
Knew you′d understand I′m leaving
That it's been this way before


′Til you beat me to the door,
At least it seems the things that I control
Turned out the way I planned them
Nothing's different here about you,
Telling me this is the last time
Somehow you′ve fooled yourself
To thinking that I'm falling you for
Never meant a word when
I told you that I love you
Just so I could lie beside you
Knew you′d understand I'm leaving
That it's been this way before
That it′s been this way before
