Living A Lie

Why cry when she tells you she's leaving?

A teardrop or two won't keep her loving you

Be grateful she's gone, no more to lead you on

Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie

You can't change her mind with your grievin'

It's wrong to pretend, let it end

This first love may die but you've still got time, give it one more try

And that's better than living a lie

<double-track solo>

<You don't have to cry when you kiss her goodbye>

<You can find someone else if you give it a try>

<Somebody else with a heart so true>

<That she'll never, never, never stop loving you>

Be grateful she's gone, no more to lead you on

Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie

<double-track solo>

<I know that you're sad but it's not so bad>

<When you think of the heartaches you might've had>

<She's only a flirt with a rovin' eye>

<Let her go, don't you know you're a lucky guy?>

This first love may die but you've still got time, give it one more try

And that's better than living a lie

And that's better than livin' a lie
