Tonight is gone, the sun is high and I'm just gettin home And now I need a good excuse for being gone so lone I'll tell her I was with a fried, that's the perfect alibi In one way I tell the truth In another way I told a lie
To tell the truth, I told a lie Pretending she's still here Her image pain is on my mind will always want her near I've been a fool so many times that I feel so ashamed In one way I tell the truth in another way I tell a lie
