Lie A Little

Lie a little before you break my heart

I know what's going through your mind

You plan to leave our love behind

You're wondering how to break the news to me

I hate to see you worry so

I love you but I'll let you go

First you'll have to help me set you free

(If you could) lie a little and tell me you still care

Try a little to ease the pain I bear

Say you love me once more before we part

Lie a little before you break my heart

[ steel ]

And now that I am losing you

What harm can make-believing do

If for a little longer I pretend

If you have ever cared at all

Give me the chance to break the fall

Lie a little say it's not the end

(If you could) lie a little...
