A Lie In My Heart

I may be wrong to say, I love you

I'll put your day in the dark

But it's better to say, I love you

Than to live with a lie in my heart

And though I know you didn't want me

I played a fool at the start

But it's better to say, I love you

Than to live with a lie in my heart

Though I may pretend I'm gay

And hide away in a magic house of my own

Hopin' that you may someday return and say

'I'm sorry I left you alone, dear'

I may be wrong to say, I miss you

Or watch your view from afar

But it's better to say, I love you

Than to live with a lie in my heart

Yas, swing cat

Uh-huh, yeah

Tickle that thing, boy

Oh, ain't that pretty?

Yowsir

I hear ya, Mr. Sax Man

Uh-huh, oh yeah

Oh, yeah

I hear ya, Mr. Coronet Man

Though I may pretend I'm gay

And hide away in a magic house of my own

Hopin' that you may someday return and say

I'm sorry I left you alone, dear

I may be wrong to say, I miss you

Or watch your view from afar

But it's better to say, I love you

Than to live with a lie in my heart
