Lyrics

You're wasting all your time here

You are spending your time unproductively here.

Riding around in the sun

Driving around in a carefree manner under the sunlight.

Alone and idling, come wander back to me

Alone and wasting time, come back to me and wander together.

You know I'll always be there

You are aware that I will always be there for you.


Lie to me lie to me

Deception - asking the person to lie to the speaker.

Make like you love me

Pretend that you love me.

Lie to me lie to me

Continuation of the request to lie about love.

Ohh, oh, ohh, ohh

Expressive sounds, perhaps indicating emotional intensity.


But this one you'll never go

Emphasizing that this particular lie is something the person can't escape from.

And this one you'll never show yourself

Highlighting that the person won't reveal their true self in this instance.

But this one you'll turn it off

The person will deliberately ignore or avoid this aspect.

And turn your world into a ghost town

Imagery of the person's actions turning their world into a desolate place.


Lie to me lie to me

Reiteration of the request to lie about love.

Make like you love me

Continued request to pretend love, reinforcing the theme of deception.

Lie to me c'mon it's easy

Encouraging the person to lie as it is perceived as an easy thing to do.

Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh,

Expressive sounds, possibly indicating a mix of emotions.


Don't think of what we can't be

Advising not to dwell on what the relationship can't become.

I know what you need

Claiming an understanding of the person's needs.

And you know that you like it

Asserting that the person enjoys what is being offered.

The name you were born with

Symbolic reference to the person's identity being evident and visible.

Is sewed on your sleeve

The person's true name is proudly displayed or metaphorically worn.

Let me believe in something

A plea to let the speaker believe in something, possibly in the sincerity of the relationship.
