Sometimes Love Has To Lie

Songwriter - Tim Hildebrandt

I saw the way you looked at him
If that ain’t love it’s never been
I knew your heart I’d never win
And just before goodbye
I said I was happy for you both
But deep inside my heart just broke
And every word i spoke, was a lie

Sometimes the truth gets in the way
Of all the words I want to say
They only break my heart and make me cry
Sometimes love has to lie

I know there is no good excuse
Not to always tell the truth
At times like this it ain’t no use
So I’ll tell a lie
I’ll just smile and say good luck
And hope when my heart call my bluff
I’ll be strong enough, not to cry
