I Could Lie To You

If i knew the truth then i could lie to you
If i knew just where and why i stood
If i knew how to betray you
Maybe i would
If i had a watch then i could take my time
If i had to love you i just might
If i knew the law i could commit a crime
But it wouldn't be right, no it wouldn't be right
My red white blue princess
Who would guess
How she scares me so
I'll never know
If i knew how scared you were i wouldn't have laughed
When you told me peace may never come
Why don't you finish your story
And i will just hum
If you let me go then i could reach for you
If you pulled away then i could fall
If i knew how to forget you
God help us all
My red white blue princess
Who would guess
How she scares me so
And if i knew the truth then i could lie to you
