Juice Newton Let's Keep It That Way
There's no need to lie
Without me half trying, I could love you
It shows in your eyes
That you feel the same way I do
But wherever I go, my conscience goes
What more can I say
It's only desire, not yet a fire
Let's keep it that way
CHORUS
'Cause I don't want to have to tell him a lie
When I get back home
It would tear apart his fairy tale world
If I did him wrong
Lying to him would hurt me more
Than leaving you this way
So before we forget, we're not cheaters yet
Let's keep it that way
Let's finish this wine
'Cause I'm not thinking too clearly tonight
And the touch of your hand
Makes it so hard to tell wrong from right
But he waits at home he's there alone
Though I'd like to stay
Before I give in
Let's call it just friends
And keep it that way
REPEAT CHORUS
I don't want to have to tell him a lie
When I get back home
It would tear apart his fairy tale world
If I did him wrong
Lying to him would hurt me more
Than leaving you this way
So before we forget, we're not cheaters yet
Let's keep it that way
I don't want to have to tell him a lie
When I get back home (fade)
