Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Every time I try to leave you

You just pull me back inside

Well baby this time I won’t fall for those pretty lies

 

You’ve said enough

So you can up and go

You had your chance

It was yours to blow

 

And now you’re knocking at my door

But boy I think you know the score

 

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Every time I try to leave you

You just pull me back inside

Well baby this time I won’t fall

 

So pack your bags

Don’t say goodbye

It’s time I found a better guy

 

And now you’re begging me to stay

But I can’t listen to what you say

 

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Don’t tell me those pretty lies

Every time I try to leave you

You just pull me back inside

Well baby this time I won’t fall for those pretty lies

 

And now you’re knocking at my door

But boy I think you know the score
