i’d lie October 28, 2009

I don’t think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his night
And I count the colors in his eyes

He’ll never fall in love
He swears, as he runs his fingers through his hair
I’m laughing ’cause I hope he’s wrong
And I don’t think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke, I fake a smile
That I know all his favorite songs

And I could tell you
His favorite color’s green
He loves to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister’s beautiful
He has his father’s eyes
And if you ask me if I love him
I’d lie

He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn’t a light go on
Doesn’t he know that I’ve had him memorized for so long
And he sees everything black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don’t let nobody see me wishin’ he was mine

I could tell you
His favorite color’s green
He loves to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister’s beautiful
He has his father’s eyes
And if you ask me if I love him
I’d lie

He stands there, then walks away
My God, if I could only say
I’m holding every breath for you

He’d never tell you
But he can play guitar
I think he can see through everything but my heart
First thought when I wake up is
My God, he’s beautiful
So I put on my make-up
And pray for a miracle

Yes, I could tell you
His favorite color’s green
And he loves to argue
Oh, and it kills me
His sister’s beautiful
He has his father’s eyes
And if you ask me if I love him…
if you ask me if I love him…
I’d lie

absolutely love this song
