Someone Told a Lie

Someone told me about your

Somebody gossiped about my

But nobody warned us about those

Someone told a lieNow we don't trust in each other's faces

And I don't know what to think about you

'Cause we can't stand in each other's places

And I can't trade with youWe've had times together where the sparks would fly

But in stormy weather we stood side by side

Now we're cold and distant, watching love roll by

Just when truth was needed someone told a lieSome folks say I'm a sinner

Some people claim I'm a saint

But nobody knows who's the winner

The truth was told too lateNow I was raised to believe that you're different

And I was told not to play with your kind

Does anyone know why they were so hell bent

On poisoning our minds?Now we're cold and distant, watching love go by

Just when truth was needed someone told a lie

But I'll do what I have to you do what you can

Just to keep on searching for the pride of manAll those tears we wasted wondering why

All those years were wasted fighting liesSomeone told me about your

Somebody gossiped about my

But nobody warned us about those

Someone told a lieNow we don't trust in each other's faces

And I don't know what to think about you

'Cause we can't stand in each other's places

And I can't trade with youWe've had times together where the sparks would fly

But in stormy weather we stood side by side

Now we're cold and distant, watching love roll by

Just when truth was needed someone told a lieBut I'll do what I have to, you'll do what you can

Just to keep on searching for the pride of man
