She's Lyin'

( Jan Crutchfield ) As her key unlocks the front door I reach out to find a light so she can see Then I wait to hear her story Why she stayed out late tonight & she tells me That it really wasn't her fault If she'd had her ways she'd have been home hours ago That's when her tears start to flowin' & she swears it's true but in my heart I know When I'm sure that I've convinced her That I believe her story then I turn away I don't let her know she's hurt me 'Cause the words stick in my throat I wanna say & I'm so afraid I'll lose her If she knew I knew the truth she just might go So I listen to her story Try to hide the hurt, but in my heart I know She's lying, there's not a word of truth in her crying & still I've got this awful urge to take her in my arms & hold her tight God, I know she's lying, a little more of me keeps on dying Oh how I wish that I could be the one that she's been lyin' with tonight Instead of me I'd rather be the one that she's been lyin' with tonight She's lying
