Would you believe me
If I said I`d never lie
Though it ain`t easy
I can tell you I have tried
But I got to say
That it comes those days
That I told something untrue
Would you forgive me
If I said I`d lied to you
This is my fear
To tell you what I`ve done
As things come clear
I`m afraid that you`ll be gone
But all I know
Is if you go
At least I`ve told what`s true
Hope you`ll forgive me
When I say I`ve lied to you
I`m burning up
I`m burning for you
When the truth has been spoken
There`s nothing I can do
Yes I`m burning up
I`m burning for you
When the truth has been spoken
There`s nothing I can do
How will you kill me
For what I`m about to tell
Please do it gently
`Cause you know I`m bound for hell
All I know is
I`ve lost my soul
I`m burning inside
Hope you`ll forgive me
Yes I have lied
Oh yes I`ve lied
I`m burning up
I`m burning for you
When the truth has been spoken
There`s nothing I can do
Yes I`m burning up
I`m burning for you
When the truth has been spoken
There`s nothing I can do
Now you know that I`ve gone
And I`ve been untrue to you
And once it`s told
Well you know there`s nothing we can do
I regret that I let this get so out of hand
I pray, please stay, that you`ll understand
I`m burning up
I`m burning for you
When the truth has been spoken
There`s nothing I can do
Yes I`m burning up
I`m burning for you
When the truth has been spoken
There`s nothing I can do
I`m burning up...
