Told You a Lie

(album: Love Me While I'm Here - 2020)

Why does this feel so wrong but it should feel right
And we gotta fuss, girl, I don't wanna fight
No, I don't wanna wait, I want your love tonight
And no, I don't wanna wait, I need you in my life
I believe one day, you'll let go of your pride
I believe one day I'll stop making you cry
I believe one day you will understand why
Why I couldn't tell the truth so I told you a lie

I had to tell a lie (Because I got tired of making you cry)
Say she love me, she lied (Because you're too good, I said goodbye)
She had me dancing with the fire
Shawty my burning desire
I'm the only guy that deserve to be beside her
I can't lie, it ain't another girl like her
(Girl, you the wifey type, I'm tryna leave a kid inside you)
I know you need someone to hold you
You know I need for you to treat me like you 'posed to
Wanna be able to tell you anything 'cause you the one I'm closed to
It ain't nothing they could tell me 'bout you, girl, they do not know you
No, no, no, I'm not worried about the old you
Won't never let go, don't believe me, well let me show you
No, no, no, nobody else come before you
Don't never let go, if you need me, I'm someone you can call to

Why does this feel so wrong but it should feel right
And we gotta fuss, girl, I don't wanna fight
No, I don't wanna wait, I want your love tonight
And no, I don't wanna wait, I need you in my life
I believe one day, you'll let go of your pride
I believe one day I'll stop making you cry
I believe one day you will understand why
Why I couldn't tell the truth so I told you a lie
