You play your part so easily You fooled yourself again With your lipstick smeared Across some face you'll never see again And I sat back in the corner Working back my memories And I wondered if the time would come You'd get around to me Oh oh, oh oh Living the sweetest lie Oh oh, oh oh Living the sweetest lie You made me feel electric Every moment that we shared But the lights went out when I realized You never even cared I picked myself back up I didn't know where I had been
And the thing that makes you seem so wrong Is I want you back again Oh oh, oh oh Living the sweetest lie, yeah Come on baby, give me love Oh oh, oh oh Living the sweetest lie, yeah Come on baby, give me love You know you'll never be taken Your love will never be taken now I know you're tired of waking I know you're tired of waking up Oh oh, oh oh Living the sweetest lie, yeah Come on baby, give me love Oh oh, oh oh Living the sweetest lie, yeah Come on baby, give me love
