(Van Stephenson/Jeff Silbar/Dave Robbins)

If that was a lie
That was the sweetest lie that I have ever heard
Every word
If that was a lie
Was it something that you didn't really mean to say
But said it anyway
You can take it back if you want to
But I'm still gonna believe you
Every word
If that was a lie
It was the sweetest lie that I have ever heard

Tell me now was it my imagination
Or just a whisper on the wind
You know the tricks the heart can play
I swear I thought I heard you say
You loved me, yeah you loved me

If that was a lie
That was the sweetest lie that I have ever heard
Every word
If that was a lie
Was it something that you didn't really mean to say
But said it anyway
You can take it back if you want to
But I'm still gonna believe you
Every word
If that was a lie
It was the sweetest lie that I have ever heard

I felt it in your tender touch
I wanted to believe so much
But was afraid to let you know
I've been waiting for so long to say I didn't hear you wrong
You loved me, yeah you loved me

If that was a lie
That was the sweetest lie that I have ever heard
Every word
It that was a lie
Was it something that you didn't really mean to say
But said it anyway

If that was a lie
