"Lie In My Arms" lyrics

She said, "Honestly, honesty don't always easily come by me"
I said, "That's probably a problem, 'cause I can't help fallin' for you, you see"

'Cause when you look me in the eyes and say "I love you"
How can I be sure that it's true? I don't wanna end up like a fool

So if you're gonna lie, lie in my arms
And if you're gonna steal, steal my heart
Can we make a right from a wrong, or are we lost?
Just holdin' to a hope that's gone
Baby, if we're goin' down, can we try to make it count?

I'm tired of fightin' and tryin' my best
To see the silver linin', but lyin' made this love a mess
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you say we're good but never mean it, wish I could say I believe it
Ain't gotta project it either, it's written on your demeanor
This ain't a rock, it's a pebble in the sand
And I'm sinkin', I'm sinkin', I'm sinkin' in

When you look me in the eyes and say "I love you"
How can I be sure that it's true? I don't wanna end up like a fool

So if you're gonna lie, lie in my arms
And if you're gonna steal, steal my heart
Can we make a right from a wrong, or are we lost?
Just holdin' to a hope that's gone
Baby, if we're goin' down, can we try to make it count?

Can we—can we try to make it—it count?
Can we try... can we try...
