Lyrics

Girl, don't you know every time I see you smilin'? Hurts so bad cause when I see you, I start trying Try everything to stop but there's no denying Falling in love with you girl is just like dying Oh-oh-oh, don't walk away Oh-oh-oh, how can I make you stay, don't turn away I can still hear you saying those Words that never were true Spoken to help nobody but you Words with lies inside But small enough to hide till your playin' was through, ah Girl don't you know we can work it out with talkin'? You won't turn around or slow down your walking I've given you everything with a kiss to seal it You had to get your kicks with tryin' to steal it Now I'm standing here Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears But all I can hear are those Words that never were true Spoken to help nobody but you Words with lies inside But small enough to hide till your playin' was through, ah Now I'm standing here Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears But all I can hear are those Words that never were true Spoken to help nobody but you Words with lies inside But small enough to hide till your playin' was through Words that never were true Spoken to help nobody but you Words with lies inside But small enough to hide till your playin' was through Words that never were true Just spoken to help nobody but you
