If you happen to see him out somewhere tonight
And he asks how I am doing tell him I'm all right.
Since you are my friend and you know how I've been
Promise me tonight you'll lie to him again.
No need to tell him my world fell apart
When he said it was over that he broke my heart.
What he doesn't know won't hurt him I'll stay home and cry
If he asks if I'm all right promise me you'll lie.
I'll be watching TV a sad show starts at nine
You go enjoy yourself really I'll be fine.
Dance and drink and party until the morning light
Just promise if he asks you'll lie to him tonight.
Make up some excuse why you're not with me
Tell him I went out with friends I never got to see
When we were a couple together all those years
Try to sound convincing make sure that he hears.
Wouldn't want him thinking I sit home and cry
If he asks how I've been doing just tell him a lie.
