She Lies – by AnnMarie Rowland with Will Rowland © 2008

Life is short; don’t let even one day pass you by
Time is money; don’t waste it staring up at the sky
She says she believes this; God help her, you know that she tries
And she says that she’s happy with him, but mostly she lies

‘Cuz she knows he adores her as long as she’s waiting for him
At the end of the day with supper, and quiet children
And she wouldn’t trade nothin’ for all of the stars in the sky
But if you look in her eyes when she’s talkin’ you know that she lies

Staying is easy when reasons get harder to find
For leaving a man who neither is cruel nor is kind
Still there’s something inside her; a dream that she cannot deny
And when he says, ‘Will you love me forever?’ She tells him a lie

Oh you see them in church every Sunday, 4th row on the right
With his arm round her shoulder she sings with her eyes both shut tight
Clinging to Jesus she prays, and sometimes she cries
Begging Him please to forgive her, ‘cuz He knows that she lies.
She’s begging Him please to forgive her, ‘cuz He knows that she lies.
