Lyrics

THE TRUEST KIND OF LIE (Mike Borok)

I know that you did nothing to deserve this
And loving me was the mistake that you made
You thought that I was everything you wanted
And now you feel so betrayed

I only had the best of intentions
I hope you don’t believe that I’m insincere
I only wanted to express the emotions
I thought that you wanted to hear

I’ll always love you, and I’ll never leave you
Baby, don’t cry
‘Cause it’s the truest kind of lie

I guess I only felt your love’s reflection
I’m not the kind of [guy/girl] who gets carried away
And all I have is what remains of the affection
That’s here in my heart when I say

That I’ll always love you and I’ll never leave you
Baby, don’t cry
‘Cause it’s the truest kind of lie

Sometimes it’s hard to find the honest thing to say
I don’t understand it, I never planned it this way

Well, maybe I’m afraid of being too revealing
Maybe my behavior is hard to defend
But if you find you lack the tender feelings
Is it so cruel to pretend?

And you’ll always love me
Say you’ll forgive me
Baby, don’t cry
Tell me the truest kind of lie

Tell it to me clearly
Say it so sincerely
Baby, baby, don’t cry
Tell me the truest kind of lie
