Daniel Lemma - Lie And Tell Me You're Happy lyrics

rate me

Really tonight I’m really letting go

There was something you said that just changed it all

And even though it came out all hollow and faint

I can see what you’re hiding

I know what you can’t

When you lie and tell me you’re happy

When you lie, lie, lie

And tell me you’re happy

And I wanted to ask about the sadness in you

But it frightenedme and somehow I already knew

I’m a marked man now, I’ll always return

And if I can’t forget, and if I can’t unlearn

You must lie and tell me you’re happy

You gotta lie, lie, lie

And tell me you’re happy

There’s so many ways to live a life

There are so many ways

To get stuck in a lie

Should we meet again, say in 15 years

You must promise me this, if you can’t be sincere

You must lie and tell me you’re happy

You gotta lie, lie, lie

And tell me you’re happy

For a while there I though I was closed to home

And not just any port in any storm

Did we violate a higher plan

Well you can comfort me in ways no repentance can

Just lie and tell me you’re happy

I guess I’m just a romantic fool

I’m scared of dying and so are you

And if they fence you in, and I’m no longer here

Don’t say we were just trying to fight the years

No baby, you lie and tell me you’re happy
