You're Telling Me Sweet Lies Again - Jean Shepard

I thought any fool

could be fooled only once

That a burn child remembers the pain

Yet here I am listening

with stars in my eyes

You're telling me sweet lies again

They're tender and soothing

Like a kiss to my heart

I know that is healing in vain

The wound will be deepen

You'll say we must part

You're telling me sweet lies again

Let some angel or parry

come rescue my heart

Wave the one to change

my fate that's so plain

I'm lost in a transe

Or a spell I can't break

You're telling me sweet lies again

They sound so familiar

like a book read before

I know that the ending's the same

Some magic is holding me

spell bound once more

You're telling me sweet lies again
