"Don't Lie To Me" lyrics - DAVID COVERDALE

I've been lied to all my life
It cuts me to the bone
But I've survived
Lies an' deceptions
So hard to see
When I needed you
You turned you back on me
Where were you when I needed you
Everything you asked of me I tried to do

So don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
Do anything you want
But don't lie to me

I was drowning in misery
Behind your painted smile
You laughed at me
But I've got you number
It's clear to see
I wouldn't treat a dog
The way you treated me

Where were you when I needed you
Everything you asked of me I tried to do

So don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
Do anything you want
But don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
One thing I can't stand
Is when you lie to me

Where were you when I needed you
Everything you asked of me I tried to do
And all because I trusted you
I've been lied to all my life
It cuts me to the bone
But I survive
Nothing ever changes
It's still the same
But one day you'll get yours
In the lying game

So don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
One thing I can't stand
Is when you lie to me
Don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
Do anything you want
But don't lie to me

Don't lie to me
Don't lie to me
One thing I can't stand
Is when you lie to me
