Would you believe me If I said I'd never lie Though it ain't easy I can tell you I have tried But I got to say That it comes those days That I told something untrue Would you forgive me If I said I'd lied to you This is my fear To tell you what I've done As things come clear I'm afraid that you'll be gone But all I know Is if you go At least I've told what's true Hope you'll forgive me When I say I've lied to you I'm burning up I'm burning for you When the truth has been spoken There's nothing I can do Yes I'm burning up I'm burning for you When the truth has been spoken There's nothing I can do How will you kill me For what I'm about to tell Please do it gently 'cause you know I'm bound for hell All I know is I've lost my soul I'm burning inside Hope you'll forgive me Yes I have lied Oh yes I've lied I'm burning up I'm burning for you When the truth has been spoken There's nothing I can do Yes I'm burning up I'm burning for you When the truth has been spoken There's nothing I can do Now you know that I've gone And I've been untrue to you And once it's told Well you know there's nothing we can do I regret that I let this get so out of hand I prayplease staythat you'll understand I'm burning up I'm burning for you When the truth has been spoken There's nothing I can do Yes I'm burning up I'm burning for you When the truth has been spoken There's nothing I can do I'm burning up...
