Lyrics:

2022

(originally by Brook Benton)

I know that I'm losing you, I feel it all the time
And I know if I lose you, I'll lose my mind
So, lie to me, lie to me, make me believe every word you say
Just, lie, lie, lie, li-i-ie, I'd rather have it that way

Nobody told me that you were cheating, it's just a feeling I had
So, if I'm right, you got to lie to me, then I won't feel so bad
'Cause the truth would mean I'd lose you and that price is too big to pay
So, baby, won't you lie, lie, lie, li-i-ie, I'd rather have it that way

Now, you may think I'm foolish for saying what I said
But the truth would mean I'd lose you, so tell me a little lie instead
Oh, just tell me that you love me, make me believe every word you say
Even if you lie, lie, lie, li-i-ie, I'd rather have it that way
So, baby, won't you lie, lie, lie, li-i-ie, I'd rather have it that way
