I Know I Lied
by
Laura Beth Leither
You want to know if you can trust me
I know I lied to you before
Then you made me feel guilty and fall to the floor
I was only trying to make you happy
I'm sorry it didn't work and now you're crying
I've told you the truth now I want you to know
Maybe you don't believe me, but time will only show
Through all this I learned a lesson
My past involves me and shouldn't be spoken
It's none of your business I know it's true
I can't tell you what happened even if I love you
Because I told you once and look what happened
Our relationship has a hole I hope we can fix
You lied to me too but I let it go
Why can't you forgive me like I have just shown
Time will only tell it you can trust me
I know what it's like I've been there too.
