It's not what you think

I just have this way of forcing words I never meant

And I'd like to think that there was weight

In the words exchanged or the way it felt back then

And I know that it gets colder at this time of year

And I know that it gets colder when the lies fly by

Though I think you should know everything

I'm keeping this one in for good and that's the way it ought to be

There's many things I'd probably say I wouldn't do but I did back then

I know I lied to you but it was better that way

And it doesn't change the way you see right through

And I know that it gets colder at this time of year

And I know that it gets colder when the lies fly by

And I know that it gets colder at this time of year

And I know that it gets colder when the lies fly by

Though I think you should know everything

I'm keeping this one in for good and that's the way it ought to be

And I know that it gets colder at this time of year (It's not what you think, I just have this way of forcing words)

And I know that it gets colder when the lies fly by (I never meant)

And I know that it gets colder at this time of year (And I'd like to think that there was weight in the words exchanged)

And I know that it gets colder when the lies fly by (or the way it felt back then)

And I know that it gets colder at this time of year (It's not what you think, I just have this way of forcing words)

And I know that it gets colder when the lies fly by (I never meant)
