I'd Be Lying

If I told you I was wrong and wanted you to come back home
I'd be lying
And if I said that we could work it out and you shouldn't have any doubts
I'd be lying
And if I got down on my knees in front of god above
And swore before the angels I'd give you my love

[chorus]
I'd be lying next to you tonight holdin' on to my my whole life
Right back where I belong
Lookin' deep into your eyes, man enough to realize
Yeah honey, I was wrong
If I could swallow my pride and put myself in your shoes
And tell you that I understand why you feel the way you do
Then baby I'd be lying, I'd be lying next to you

And if I told you that I loved you and I'd put no one else above you
I'd be lying
And if I said that you're the one for me and I'd never set you free
I'd be lying
And if I somehow found the strength to knock on your front door
And tell you face to face I won't hurt you anymore

[Repeat chorus]

If I could swallow my pride and put myself in your shoes
And tell you that I understand why you feel the way you do
Then baby I'd be lying, I'd be lying next to you
