Lyin' in his arms again
Sayin' things that I don't mean
Making love while I pretend
You're the one who's holding me
How it hurts to think I lie
To the one who thinks the world of me
So tonight I'll let him hold me and tell him I love him
Lyin' in his arms again
My heart is aching, filled with pain
'Cause tonight I meant to tell him but I put it off again
Oh, I don't mean to hurt his pride
'Cause he has always been to me a lover and a friend to me
And I just couldn't bear to see him cry
So I'm lying in his arms again
Saying things that I don't mean
Making love while I pretend
You're the one who's holding me
How it hurts to think I'd lie
To the one who thinks the world of me
So tonight I'll let him hold me and tell him I love him
Lyin' in his arms again
It won't be long now till I tell the truth
I'm gonna get my courage up and tell him about you
This ring I'm wearing, it fits so tight
Oh, you know it's choking me I wish that it would set me free
Or I'll have to play pretend again tonight
But I'm lyin' in his arms again
Sayin' things that I don't mean
Making love while I pretend
You're the one who's holding me
How it hurts to think I lie to the one who thinks the world of me
So tonight I'll let him hold me and tell him I love him
Lyin' in his arms again
Lyin' in his arms again
