Lying Lyrics – Dan + Shay
Lying Lyrics
[Verse 1: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
If I show up at a party, and see you with somebody
Believe me when I say, "I'll be fine"
I won't drink until I'm dizzy, or ask you if you miss me
Or hope that you might take back, goodbye
[Pre-Chorus: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
I'm being honest (Honest)
Baby, I promise (Oh)
[Chorus: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
I don't miss you in my bed
I don't hear you in my head
I don't love you, I'm not crying
And I swear I'm not lying
Lying, lying, lying
Lying, lying, I swear I'm not lying
[Verse 2: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
Even if you don't ask, I'ma let you know that
I've been seein’ somebody too
And when she's staring at me, I swear it makes me happy
Cross my heart, I'm telling the truth
[Pre-Chorus: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
I'm being honest (Honest)
Baby, I promise (Oh)
Oh, oh-woah, oh-woah, oh, yeah
[Chorus: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
I don't miss you in my bed
I don't hear you in my hеad
I don't love you, I'm not crying
And I swear I'm not lying
Lying, lying, lying
Lying, lying, I swear I'm not lying
[Bridge: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
I wokе up in the morning, it's a beautiful day
Put on another “I’m already over you” face
Smile in the mirror like I ain't going through hell
I keep telling my, telling myself
[Outro: Shay Mooney & Dan Smyers]
I don't miss you in my bed
I don't hear you in my head
I don't love you
I'm just tryna keep on telling my, telling myself (Oh, yeah)
I don't miss you in my bed (I don't miss you)
I don't hear you in my head (I don't hear you in my head, no)
I don't love you, I'm not crying
And I swear I'm not lying
Lying (Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah)
Lying, lying (Oh, oh, oh, oh-woah, yeah)
Lying, lying, lying
Lying Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
