Dan Hill
No One Taught Me How To Lie
No one taught me how to lie I was a talented child
Imagination found words and my stories went wild
I just did it for laughs
Did it for fun - did it cause I liked to fool everyone
Not that anyone believed me
They just seemed to understand
That all the times I spent alone inside my head
Lies were all I had
No one taught me how to lie
I just did it with ease
Did it out of principle and did it to tease
It made me feel so worthwhile
Made me feel ten feet tall
Made me feel I could be or do anything at all
“just a nervous disorder” the doctor said as he marched out the door
as I put on my poor and frightened child routine
and I conned them all one more
and here I am with you
thrown so many lies your way
I believed most of them too
And you say you love me –
Girl you’ve been looking at a stranger
If this hurts you somehow it hurts me more
Letras de cancionesI never knew what honesty was for
Until the moment that you look at me
You say you want be a part of me
Girl whatever’s left of me is yours
All the kids would laugh at me
I wouldn’t talk for fear I’d cry
Nobody, nobody taught me how to lie
Nobody taught me how to lie
(Thanks to Betty Hoeffner for these lyrics)
