Ray Price – But I Was Lying

BUT I WAS LYING

(Joe Allison – Audrey Allison)

« © ’62 Central Songs »

I said congratulations and I hope you’re happy

But I was lying I hope you’re crying

And everytime she touches you you’ll think of me

I said the best of luck to you to your new love

But I was lying no use denying

I’m not as good a loser as I thought I’d be

I hope our past is strong enough to cloud your vision

Till one day she’ll even get to look like me

I hope my mem’ry crowd your mind within decision

And from force of habit you’ll run straight to me

And when I said I’ll see you soon let’s together

I wasn’t lying I hope you’re crying

Tears of joy the day that you come back to me
