Lyrics of The lie

She thought the marriage was over
And she needed a shoulder to cry on
She turned to another
And for a night found a lover

But it felt so wrong
The next month they reconciled
But every time she saw him smile
She knew she couldn't tell him 'bout that night
She prays to god, he never finds out about the lie

Like a pain almost too much to bare
The guilt will always be right there
Ripping away at her heart
Some would say she's wrong to keep

The secret from him
But she knows the truth
Will tear his world apart
She's gonna live and die with the lie

There little boy turned five the other day
At the party she never seen a face so happy
She worries as the years go by
Will he wonder why he don't look like his daddy?

She sees him playing in the yard
The laughter sometimes hits her hard
The bond they share makes her start to cry
And times like that she'd give anything
If she could change the lie

Like a pain almost too much to bare
The guilt will always be right there
Ripping away at her heart
Some would say she's wrong to keep

The secret from him
But she knows the truth
Will tear his world apart
She's gonna live and die with the lie

They never spoke about that night
They shared so long ago
But everyday they pass at work
And she wonders if he knows

Like a pain almost too much to bare
The guilt will always be right there
Ripping away at her heart
Some would say she's wrong to keep

The secret from him
But she knows the truth
Will tare his world apart
She's gonna live and die with the lie

She's gonna live
And die with the lie
