Tami Neilson You Lie
[Verse 1]
There's no lipstick on your collar
You haven't spent a dollar
On roses or fancy hotel rooms
You're smart enough to hide it
But fool enough to keep denying the truth
And I can see your fingers shakin'
With each promise that you're breakin', I know
But instead of packing up your things to go
[Chorus]
You lie beside me
When you get home in the cold dead of night
And you lie in our bed each dawn's early light
You lie in her arms
Like a thief stealing my precious time
And I'm tired
Of waking up to the place where you lie
[Verse 2]
This town is full of whispers
About seeing you 'round with her
Seems you're finally taking out the trash
You shake your head, you roll your eyes
Say that it's all in my mind, relax
But after all these years together
Honey, no-one knows you better than me
But instead of packing up your things to leave
[Chorus]
You lie beside me
When you get home in the cold dead of night
And you lie in our bed each dawn's early light
You lie in her arms
Like a thief stealing my precious time
So you'll find I'll be gone in the morning
While you lie
