Song lyrics
Ah when you cross that line that you know you can't erase
To fall in lust, not love, ain't no sin at all
And tell me when you're with your best friend's friend, do you still feel out of place?
No thanks, I took that ride
God only knows I tried believing
I imagine everyone sometimes
Would cross their heart and hope to die to tell "I love you" lies
I imagine everyone survives
For giving up all that you got to tell "I love you" lies
First time you look for love, you find you don't know jack
Yeah, so much for mind games you play to win
'Cause first you lose your heart's desire, then you get it back
But ignorance ain't bliss
There's so much more behind the kiss I'm feeling
I imagine everyone sometimes
Would cross their heart and hope to die to tell "I love you" lies
I imagine everyone survives
For giving up all that you got to tell "I love you" lies
When loneliness and paranoia feeds me
God help the person who needs me
If ignorance is bliss, then take me off the list, I'm leaving
I imagine everyone sometimes
Would cross their heart and hope to die to tell "I love you" lies
I imagine everyone survives
For giving up all that you got to tell "I love you" lies
