I Lied

I swore that I'd become a better man for you, and I tried Tried to change my ways and walk the line you follow I bore a flame that burned a thousand suns for you, but it died Told you I could never love somebody else, but I lied Ooh, I lied Ooh, I lied I told you I'd be coming back again for you, but I'm not Going way out where the world will never find me I made a claim that I would dance until we're bones with my bride Told you I would never leave you all alone, but I lied I read your letter in the morning by the lake, and I cried They were tears of joy, my chains are finally broken I made a vow to stand beside you 'til the day that I die Told you I could never live without your love, but I lied Ooh, I lied Ooh, I lied Ooh, I lied Ooh, I lied Ooh, I lied Ooh, I lied
