Tell Me Lies

Tell Me Lies is one of the songs in Cats Don't Dance.

Lyrics
I never believed that there was a rainbow

With a pot of gold at the end

I'm much too smart

for fairy tales like that

Yet here I am, again

I thought this time

This time, we're gonna make it

Why I thought so

I really don't know

Maybe something in his eyes

Just told me so

Something in his eyes

Tell me lies

And I'll come running

I must have lost

My mind

I could close my eyes

And tell you

Just exactly what's coming

Life's gonna turn

Just a little unkind

Seems like everyone's sailing

Way out on the sea

And I'm stuck here

On the shore

Sun's always shining

But it's never for me

Why should I try anymore

Tell me lies

Tell me lies

I'll just keep right on coming

This time I've got

To believe

In a dream

This time I've got

To believe

In his dream
