Lyrics
0:01I probably should have told her the sky was falling
0:04Or maybe that my car ran out of gas
0:10My grandma was sick and I had to leave town right away
0:17Not ok
0:21Tell one more to fix the last one
0:25But I never get back to the truth
0:30Thinking to myself she'll never find out
0:34That's what we do (That's what we do)
0:37That's how we do (That's how we do)
0:41I wonder what she really thinks of me
0:45Shouldn't really told her everything
0:50But it's too late
0:53Can't take it back
0:55She'll never look at me the same way again
0:59Noooooo
1:00(I shoulda lied) Cuz the truth may not set me free
1:04(And now goodbye) Is more than just a word
1:10My honesty just became my enemy
1:15Maybe a lie would have made things right this time
1:20Shoulda lied
1:25Shoulda lied
1:32Shoulda said it was the end of the world
1:35But sadly it's my reality
1:40Would she stay if I said I only had one day left
1:45Stay with me (Stay with me)
1:48Please don't leave (Please don't leave)
1:51I wonder what she really thinks of me
1:56I wish I would have never said a thing
2:01But it's too late for that
2:03I don't think she's coming back
2:06And I'll never look at truth the same again
2:11(I shoulda lied) Cuz the truth may not set me free
2:15(And now goodbye) Is more than just a word
2:21My honesty just became my enemy
2:26Maybe a lie would have made things right this time
2:31Shoulda lied
2:36Shoulda lied
2:42Now I'm trying hard to convince my heart
2:47That everything would be ok
2:52She said she'll never leave
2:54And I just can't believe she's gone
2:58And now I know
3:01(I shoulda lied) Cuz the truth may not set me free
3:06(And now goodbye) Is more than just a word
3:12My honesty just became my enemy
3:17Maybe a lie would have made things right this time
3:21I Shoulda lied
3:26And now goodbye
3:33Promise myself next time I won't tell the truth
3:37Cuz If I knew what I knew right now I'll still be with you
3:41I shoulda lied
3:47Shoulda lied
3:52I shoulda lied
3:57Should lied
I probably should have told her the sky was falling Or maybe that my car ran out of gas My grandma was sick and I had to leave town right away Not ok Tell one more to fix the last one But I never get back to the truth Thinking to myself she'll never find out That's what we do (That's what we do) That's how we do (That's how we do) I wonder what she really thinks of me Shouldn't really told her everything But it's too late Can't take it back She'll never look at me the same way again Noooooo (I shoulda lied) Cuz the truth may not set me free (And now goodbye) Is more than just a word My honesty just became my enemy Maybe a lie would have made things right this time Shoulda lied Shoulda lied Shoulda said it was the end of the world But sadly it's my reality Would she stay if I said I only had one day left Stay with me (Stay with me) Please don't leave (Please don't leave) I wonder what she really thinks of me I wish I would have never said a thing But it's too late for that I don't think she's coming back And I'll never look at truth the same again (I shoulda lied) Cuz the truth may not set me free (And now goodbye) Is more than just a word My honesty just became my enemy Maybe a lie would have made things right this time Shoulda lied Shoulda lied Now I'm trying hard to convince my heart That everything would be ok She said she'll never leave And I just can't believe she's gone And now I know (I shoulda lied) Cuz the truth may not set me free (And now goodbye) Is more than just a word My honesty just became my enemy Maybe a lie would have made things right this time I Shoulda lied And now goodbye Promise myself next time I won't tell the truth Cuz If I knew what I knew right now I'll still be with you I shoulda lied Shoulda lied I shoulda lied Should lied
