She'd come home 6 a.m. tell me she'd been out with friends
And I let her lie I let her lie
In the glare of the morning sun she swore I was her only one
And I let her lie I let her lie

Cause the truth was too hard to handle and I couldn't bear to lose that girl
We were that small town's scandal but she was my only world

One teary night she confessed her sins but she vowed to never cheat again
And I let her lie I let her lie
Though she tried Lord she could not change and I only have myself to blame
Cause I let her lie I let her lie

Cause the truth was too hard to handle...

The day I left no words were said she was sound asleep on our double bed
And I let her lie I let her lie I let her lie I let her lie
