Telling Me Lies — текст песни (Dolly Parton)

They say a woman`s a fool for weeping
A fool to break her own heart
But I can`t hold the secret I`m keeping
I`m breaking apart
Can`t seem to mind my own business
Whatever I try turns out wrong
I seem like my own false witness
And I can`t go on

I cover my ears, I close my eyes
Still hear your voice and it`s telling me lies
Telling me lies

You told me you needed my company
And I believed in your flattering ways
You told me you needed me forever
Nearly gave you the rest of my days

Should`ve seen you for what you are
Should never have come back for more
Should`ve locked up all my silver
Brought the key right to your door

Repeat Chorus

You don`t know what a chance is
Until you have to seize one
You don`t know what a man is
Until you have to please one

Don`t put your life in the hands of a man
With a face for every season
Don`t waste your time in the arms of a man
Who`s no stranger to treason

Repeat Chorus
