Tears Don't Lie

from The Stages of Grief by Rosendale

/

lyrics

Hey
I’m sending you all my regards
Just wondering where you are
It feels like forever since we’ve been apart
And I’ve been learning to live on my own
But when I’m in bed all alone
I’m tossing and turning ‘cause now that you’re gone

I’m not doing too well
As you probably can tell
I know I told myself that I wouldn’t reach out
I think I need help

‘Cause I’ve been listening to all these love songs
Wondering where did we go wrong
Trying to find all the pieces you took from my heart
I thought that we could’ve been something
But now you left me here broken
All I can do is keep hoping that I will move on

I say I’m doing fine
But tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
I still can fake a smile
But can’t dry my eyes

Tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
Tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
Tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
Tears don’t lie

Hey
Hope you don’t mind that I’m checking in
Just wondering where you’ve been
Are you sleeping alone or in somebody’s bed
And I’ve been trying to clean up this mess
But still reading all your old texts
Didn’t you get the one where I said

That I’ve been listening to all these love songs
Wondering where did we go wrong
Trying to find all the reasons I’m left in the dark
I thought that we could’ve been something
But now you left me here broken
All I can do is keep hoping that I will move on

I say I’m doing fine
But tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
I still can fake a smile
But can’t dry my eyes

Tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
Tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
Tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
Tears don’t lie

Mama said
Remember to keep some of your heart for yourself
‘Cause only you can guard it nobody else
Now he took it all away
Mama what should I say?
I’ll just say I’m doing fine
But my tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya

I’ve been listening to all these love songs
Wondering where did we go wrong
Trying to find all the pieces you took from my heart
I thought that we could’ve been something
But now you left me here broken
All I can do is keep hoping that I will move on

I say I’m doing fine
But tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
I still can fake a smile
But tears don’t lie
I say I’m doing fine
But tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie ya ya
I still can fake a smile
But tears don’t lie
Tears don’t lie
