If a star fell from the sky for every time you told a lie There wouldn't be a star left in the blue Ain't no river long enough or wide enough or deep enough To hold all of the tears I've cried for you I hate the lies but love the liar can't help myself what can I do I hate the lies love the liar so much that I convince my heart they're true And I just can't stop loving you [ Piano ] If somebody wrote a song for every time you've done me wrong The blues would be the only songs you'd hear You come up with same excuse you smile at me and what's the use Your voice is like a love song to my ear I hate the lies... [ Strings ] I hate the lies...
