Lyrics
Sometimes, when a man is told,
?It?s over? by his girl.
Fighting hard to keep her is no good.
You?ve got to cut it clean.
Let me tell you what I mean,
?Cos, that?s the way it happened,
When she told me we were thru.
She said, it was my doing,
And she?d found somebody new,
I wished that I was somewhere else that day.
All of my frustration
Must?ve shown upon my face.
Then I said the words,
I never dreamt I?d say.
I said I didn?t love her, but I lied.
(Chorus)
I said I didn?t love her,
But I lied.
I said I didn?t love her,
Just to try to save my pride.
We stood there face to face,
And I looked her in the eyes,
And I said, I didn?t love her, but I lied.
I?d thrown that girl a curve,
We could never be just friends.
I loved her, but I couldn?t let her win,
Her shoulders seemed to sag,
And she had nothing more to say,
It tore me up inside,
To see her turn and walk away.
When I said I didn?t love her, and I lied.
She had not expected,
How could she have known?
She didn?t guess a thing, of that I?m sure.
I?d just been out that day,
To get that band of gold.
I hid it all so well,
And there was nothing left to say.
When I said, I didn?t love her, and I lied.
