That Was a Lie - Joan Osborne

This is how you know you finally earned your place

When there ain’t no difference between a mask and your face

That was a lie

That was a lie

The thing that you told me

Oh, that was a lie

If every day it gets a little bit worse (oh, whoa-whoa)

Well, he’s just a wallet and she’s just a purse (oh, whoa-whoa)

You can’t repeat until you got that very last dime

Oh, but that ain’t enough to pay the man on time

That was a lie

That was a lie

The thing that you told me

Honey, that was a lie

That was a lie

That was a lie

The thing that you told me

Oh, that was a lie

Oh, my

If only love could say they’d never understand

Then you touch him again with your hard-hearted hand

That was a lie

That was a lie

The thing that you told me

Honey, that was a lie

That was a lie

That was a lie

The thing that you told me

Honey, that was a lie, yeah

The thing that you told

Honey, that was a lie

The thing that you told

Honey, that was a lie

The thing that you told

Honey, that was a lie
