(Dave Robbins, Van Stephenson, Jeff Silbar)

If that was a lie

that was the sweetest lie that I have

ever heard

Every word

If that was a lie

Was it something that you didn't really mean to say

but said it anyway

you can take it back if you want to

but I'm still gonna believe you

Every word

If that was a lie

It was the sweetest lie that I have

ever heard

Tell me now was it my imagination

Or just a whisper on the wind

You know the tricks the heart can play

I swear I thought I heard you say

You loved me, yeah you loved me

If that was a lie

that was the sweetest lie that I have

ever heard

Every word

If that was a lie

Was it something that you didn't really mean to say

but said it anyway

you can take it back if you want to

but I'm still gonna believe you

Every word

If that was a lie

It was the sweetest lie that I have

ever heard

I felt it in your tender touch

I wanted to believe so much

But was afraid to let you know

I've been waiting for so long to say I didn't

hear you wrong

You loved me, yeah you loved me

If that was a lie

That was the sweetest lie that I have

ever heard

Every word

It that was a lie

Was it something that you didn't really mean to say

But said it anyway

If that was a lie

If that was a lie

If that was a lie

Oh, every word

If that was a lie

If that was a lie

Oh, if that was a lie

Said it anyway

If that was a lie

If that was a lie

If that was a lie
