'Cause the truth was too hard to handle
And I couldn't bare to lose that girl
We were that small town scandal but
Though she tried Lord, she could not change
And I let her lie
She was sound asleep on our double bed
I let her lie
And I let her lie
And in the glare of the morning sun
'Cause I let her lie
I let her lie
I let her lie
We were that small town scandal but
And I only have myself to blame
But she vowed to never cheat again
She was my only world
The day I left no words were said
I let her lie
I let her lie
And I couldn't bare to lose that girl
She was my only world
One teary night she confessed her sins
'Cause the truth was too hard to handle
And I let her lie
She swore I was her only one
And I let her lie
I let her lie
