- Words and Music by Brook Benton and Margie Singleton



I know I'm losin' you, I feel it all the time

And I know if I lose you, then I'll lose my mind

So lie to me, lie to me, make me believe everything you say

Just, lie, lie, lie, li-i-ie, I'd rather have it that way



Nobody told me you were cheating

Aww it's just a feeling I had

So if I'm right, you got to lie to me

Then I won't feel so bad



Because the truth would only hurt me

And that price is too big to pay

So lie to me, lie to me, I'd rather have it that way



Now you may think I'm foolish for saying what I said

But the truth could mean I'd lose you

So tell me a little lie instead



Tel me that you love me and I'll believe every word you say

Even if you lie, lie, lie, li-i-ie, I'd rather have it that way
