[Shawn]
I probably should have told her the sky was falling
Or maybe that my car ran out of gas
My grandma was sick and I had to leave town right away

Not okay

[Nate]
Tell one more to fix the last one
But I never get back to the truth
Thinking to myself she´ll never find out
That´s what we do (That´s what we do)
That´s how we do (That´s how we do)

[Wanya]
I wonder what she really thinks of me
Shouldn´t really told her everything
But it´s too late
Can´t take it back
She´ll never look at me the same way again
Noooooo

(I shoulda lied) Cause the truth made her set me free
(And now goodbye) Is more than just a word
My honesty just became my enemy
Maybe a lie would have made things right this time
Shoulda lied
Shoulda lied

[Nate]
Shoulda said it was the end of the world
But sadly it´s my reality

[Shawn]
Would she stay if I said I only had one day left
Stay with me (Stay with me)
Please don´t leave (Please don´t leave)

[Bridge 2 – Wanya]
I wonder what she really thinks of me
I wish I would have never said a thing
But it´s too late for that
I don´t think she´s coming back
And I´ll never look at truth the same again

(I shoulda lied) Cause the truth made her set me free
(And now goodbye) Is more than just a word
My honesty just became my enemy
Maybe a lie would have made things right this time
Shoulda lied
Shoulda lied

[Bridge 2 - Wanya]
Now I´m trying hard to convince my heart

That everything would be ok
She said she´ll never leave
And I just can´t believe she´s gone
And now I know

(I shoulda lied) Cause the truth made her set me free
(And now goodbye) Is more than just a word
My honesty just became my enemy
Maybe a lie would have made things right this time
I Shoulda lied
And now goodbye

Promise myself next time I won´t tell the truth
Cuz If I knew what I knew right now I´ll still be with you

I shoulda lied
Shoulda lied
I shoulda lied
Shoulda lied
