Now I Know She Was Lying

She said I’ll be back soon

I could only hope she wasn’t lying

She said I love you

I could only stand and hope she wasn’t lying

She said, crying, I’ll miss you

I could only hope she wasn’t lying

I sat on the curb when she pulled away

Teddy bear in my arms

I was only 8

If I knew then she wasn’t coming back

I wouldn’t of wished so hard she wasn’t lying
