" You Lie "

“You Lie”
(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)

( Verse 1 )
She texted him and called, but he never answered at all
He got home late that night, something just didn’t feel right
She asked him where he had been, he said, Out with a few old friends
But she saw the truth in his eyes, smelled perfume on his skin

( Chorus )
She said, “You lie, I’ll never trust you again
Tell me who it is, don’t pretend
You broke my heart, you crossed that line
You lie, and I’ll never call you mine”

( Verse 2 )
He turned his face away, said, “Not now, it’s too late today”
He tried to walk on past, but her tears fell too fast
She said, “The vows we made don’t mean a thing
When love is torn by secret sins”
Her trembling voice shook the night, but he just turned out the light

( Chorus )
She said, “You lie, I’ll never trust you again
Tell me who it is, don’t pretend
You broke my heart, you crossed that line
You lie, and I’ll never call you mine”

( Bridge )
All the nights she waited, all the times she prayed
All the love she gave him slowly slipped away
Trust once broken is a fire that won’t die
It burns through the truth, leaving only goodbye

( Chorus )
She said, “You lie, I’ll never trust you again
Tell me who it is, don’t pretend
You broke my heart, you crossed that line
You lie, and I’ll never call you mine”

( Outro )
Now the bed feels cold, where love once lay
She whispers in the dark as he walks away
“You lie… and I’ll never trust you again.”
