NEW EDITION LYRICS - That's Why I Lied

"That's Why I Lied"



[Intro]

Listen up ma I got something to tell you



[Verse 1]

Theres no kiss from you when I'm leavin in the moring

Theres no roses for you when I know I hurt your feelings

Don't know what happened to us girl I never saw it comin

How did love go down hill

I think I know why cheatin meant fear



[Brige 1]

I hit the bar by a drink

Sippin slow just to think

That a star would think go cheat

She said it looks like you need a friend

The lonely girl is knocking let me in

We can leave in delay

Take my mind off this pain

Do golden things in the mariot suite

Tell wifey that I might be workin

Hope I never have to say I lied



[Chorus]

To keep my six

To keep my house to still be here to work things out

To find some way babe

To make it up to you

Thats why I lied

To keep your health

To keep your kin

To still be here to raise our kids

To keep my ring babe I couldn't tell the truth



[Verse 2]

I'm so nervous these days

Got a feelings she'll be calling

I know hurt is on the way

When I dream of angels falling

Theres no perfect way to say

That my values to you were brokin

Who is that on the phone (hello)

Let me explain before you go



[Bridge 2]

I hit the bar by a drink

Sippin slow just to think

That a star would think go cheat

She said it looks like you need a friend

The lonely girl is knocking let her in

Whatever no delay

Take my mind off this pain

Do golden things on the mariot suite

I know I said that I was working late

But you found out today I lied



[Chorus]



[Verse 3]

From the moment I heard you say you leavin (to go)

It was the words I though couldn't happen fa sho

I'm already missin your lovin and laughter

The moring after

It's not a whole with out you here

I swear I learn my lesson babe



[Chorus]



[Outro]

Strickly for the ladies

My black sistas

Strickly for the ladies
