I know what's going through your mind you planned to leave my love behind You're wondering how to break the news to me I hate to see you worry so I love you but I'll let you go First you'll have to help me set you free Lie a little and tell me you still care lie a little and ease the pain I bear Say you love me once more before we part lie a little before you break my heart [ steel ] And now that I'm losing you what harm will make believe in you Before a little longer I pretend If you have ever cared at all give me a chance to break the fall Lie a little say it's not the end Lie a little and tell me you still care...
