Liar
Deceptive Promises: Dwight Yoakam's 'Liar' Unveils the Illusion of Love
Lyrics
You say that you will
You claim that you will fulfill a promise
When I know that you won't
I am aware that you won't follow through on your promise
You say that you do
You assert that you love me
Baby when I know you don't
I know that your claim of love is untrue
Really love me
You supposedly have deep affection for me
You never loved me at all
In reality, you never loved me at all
Honey you never tried
You never made a genuine effort
If you did you would have had to crawl
If you had tried, you would have had to humble yourself
You say that I did
You accuse me of doing something
Baby when you know I don't
You are aware that I did not do what you claim
You said that I will
You claim that I will do something in the future
When you knew that I won't
You knew that I will not fulfill that future action
Ever love you
You state that I will never love you
No I would not even try
I affirm that I will not even attempt to love you
Look if you say it again
If you repeat the claim, I will assert that it is a blatant falsehood
I'll swear that's just one big lie
I will swear that your repeated statement is a major untruth
Oh you say that you do
You maintain that you love me
But we both know you don't
We both acknowledge that your love is insincere
You still say that you will
You persist in claiming that you will do something
When it's so for sure you won't
It's certain that you will not follow through on your claim
Ever love me
You will never make an effort to love me
No you never even try
Your attempts at love are non-existent
From the first day we met
From the very first day we met
And you said it, that was a lie
You uttered a falsehood when you declared your love
