I Lie to Myself Lyrics

"I lie to Myself"
I used to be the real thing
Everything or nothing
Love was a heart thing
Never was a head game
But now a little bit older
A little bit wiser
I love a little slower
And just a little bit colder
But now I find myself
By myself
Under these sheets
I bet that I could find
Some peace of mind
If you were here with me

I lie to myself
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
I lie to myself
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
I bet I know the moment
I gave up on the details
I gave up on the fire
I gave up on the females
I been burned once or twice
I finally yelled stop
I settled for the good life
I bet I’ll be a good wife
But now I find myself
By myself
Under these sheets
I bet that I could find
Some peace of mind
If you were here with me
I lie to myself
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
I lie to myself
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Okay okay okay okay okay
I hang my head in shame
Every time I get wrapped up in your sheets and game
Cause I outta know better
You would think I’d learn
That when I press up to your heat
I’m gonna feel your burn (UH)
Twenty years later like the B.I.G.
I guess sometimes your lips and hips entice me
So the game persists and I don’t know why
But I can’t resist you so I tell a lie
I lie to myself
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
I lie to myself
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
