That's Why I Lied — New Edition

Intro

Listen up ma I got something to tell you

Verse 1

Theres no kiss from you when I'm leavin in the moring Theres no roses for you when I know I hurt your feelings Don't know what happened to us girl I never saw it comin How did love go down hill I think I know why cheatin meant fear

Brige 1

I hit the bar by a drink Sippin slow just to think That a star would think go cheat She said it looks like you need a friend The lonely girl is knocking let me in We can leave in delay Take my mind off this pain Do golden things in the mariot suite Tell wifey that I might be workin Hope I never have to say I lied

Chorus

To keep my six To keep my house to still be here to work things out To find some way babe To make it up to you Thats why I lied To keep your health To keep your kin To still be here to raise our kids To keep my ring babe I couldn't tell the truth

Verse 2

I'm so nervous these days Got a feelings she'll be calling I know hurt is on the way When I dream of angels falling Theres no perfect way to say That my values to you were brokin Who is that on the phone (hello) Let me explain before you go

Bridge 2

I hit the bar by a drink Sippin slow just to think That a star would think go cheat She said it looks like you need a friend The lonely girl is knocking let her in Whatever no delay Take my mind off this pain Do golden things on the mariot suite I know I said that I was working late But you found out today I lied

Chorus

Verse 3

From the moment I heard you say you leavin (to go) It was the words I though couldn't happen fa sho I'm already missin your lovin and laughter The moring after It's not a whole with out you here I swear I learn my lesson babe

Chorus
