My friends all ask me How i'm doin Since you took you sweet love away And i kno that they're Just showin they care But what do they expect me to say So i lie I tell them i'm alright I lie I tell them i'm fine I don't think they really wanna know the truth What's the use? What can they do? So i look them straight in the eye And i lie They offer a shoulder to cry on Anytime, i just have to call But little do they know The river that would flow If i let the first tear drops fall So i lie I tell them i'm alright I lie I tell them i'm fine I don't think they really wanna know the truth What's the use? What can they do? So i look them straight in the eye And i lie I've often wondered what i'd do If i were to run into you Would my heart fall at your feet Would my foolish pride get the best of me Well honestly i believe That i'd lie And tell you i'm alright I'd lie i'd tell you i'm fine I could never ever let you know the truth That i'm still in love and so confused So i'd hide my pain deep inside Then i'd look you straight in the eye And i'd lie
