Why do people lie?
Lyin' only breaks their hearts
And tears their lives apart
Makin' 'em cry, tell me whyEven if I try, even if I lie, lie, lie to little babe
Oh, I know she'll never leave me, she'll stay by my sideTell me why do the people say
She ain't lovin' you anyway
So why you keep believin' it brother
She'll keep makin' her time wight before your eyes
Tell me why they gotta lieTell me why do people lie?
Why do people lie?When I looked I had to look again
In my eyes a revelation
In her arms the fascination
Of a friendWhen I looked I had to look again
In my eyes a revelation
In her arms the fascination
Of a friendNow I let 'em know
People say, "I told you so"
I say, "Learnin' don't come easy, baby
I've been makin' like a, like a fool"Tell me why, why is it true?
Why? Tell me why do people lie?Why do people lie?
Tell me why do people lie?Why do people lie?
Tell me why do people lie?Why do people lie?
Tell me why do people lie?
