Lie like you mean it
don't lie for fun
there aint nothing new
underneath the sun
Lie like you mean it
every lie a pearl
lie just like you
were the last girl in the world
Lie like you mean it
Lie top to bottom
lie like you know
that the apples rotten
I thought that I could trust you
every game you played
it all was just for show
and when the hand was over
four aces weren't enough
I said it's just not fair
and all you said was "tough"
lie like you mean it
give me one more chance
fool me now or never
with a true romance
lie like you mean it
I won't take no for an answer
love is a ballet
and you and I are dancers
lie like you me it
do it one more time
if I have to rot in jail
let me commit the crime
We all lie. Your song pleads for reunion after the big lie had been cast. Quite common in songs. But there are few of us that don't long for a lost love to come back.
In the last stanza you meant to write "meant" instead of "me."
Yes, there's natural fervour of earnestness in the arrangement even if the persona is likely not meaning what he says. Now, all you have to do is set just one intrument to its tempo and that should do it. Hope some band-master reads your song. Fun to read and echo in silence.
