Lover Lies Lyrics - Singles - The Atomic Fireballs

And when I woke up 

I thought that she'd be gone 

But she tied me to the bedpost 

Threw my stuff out on the lawn 

She said she knew of 

A love that never dies 

She discovered 

How her lover lies 

She stood there silent 

With anger in her eyes 

In the past she never guessed it 

But she finally realized 

She thought she knew me 

It should come as no surprise 

She discovered 

How a lover lies 

I ran around with Lucy Brown 

A time or two 

Not long ago 

I did not know she knew 

She made her acquaintance 

Now her patience 

Is finally through 

She says I'm just like 

All the other guys 

And she thinks that it's no wonder 

That divorce is on the rise 

But there's one thing 

I cannot compromise 

When I discover 

How my lover lies 

Now night is falling 

Thoughts running through my head 

I shut my eyes sober 

And waking them up dead 

They'd have a suspect 

She'd say she's justified 

'Cause she discovered 

How her lover lies 

She thought of a crime 

She'd wish they'd legalize 

When she discovered 

How her lover lies
