I watched as he held her and kissed her goodnight

Heard every word as I stood out of sight

Just like a fool everything he believed

Nothin' but sweet lies she once told to me



Foolhearted boy, should I tell what I know

Just how she'll win love and then let it go

Too much in love and too far gone to see

It's only sweet lies she once told to me



Once he starts fallin' he won't wanna stop

She'll build him up high and then let him drop

Down with the others who never could see

It's only sweet lies she once told to me



Once he starts fallin' he won't wanna stop

She'll build him up high and then let him drop

Down with the others who never could see

It's only sweet lies she once told to me
