Lie Before You Leave

(album: My Town - 2002)

I know it's over I won't hide from that
Once that door closes you won't be coming back
I've only one favor left to ask of you
If your heart's not hurting too

Lie before you leave and tell me we were something
Say that leaving me will be your great regret
Say it sweet enough that one day
It'll feel like it was love that we made
Do this thing for me
Set my mind at ease
Lie before you leave

I never doubted you made me believe
That deep down inside you really cared for me
But if that was just some kind of spell you weaved that's fine
As long as you work that magic one more time

Lie before you leave and tell me we were something
Say that leaving me will be your great regret
Say it sweet enough that one day
It'll feel like it was love that we made
Do this thing for me
Set my mind at ease
Lie before you leave

Lie before you leave and tell me we were something
Say that leaving me will be your great regret
Say it sweet enough that one day
It'll feel like it was love that we made
Do this thing for me
Set my mind at ease
Lie before you leave
Lie before you leave
