Someone Told A Lie

Someone told me about your
Somebody gossiped about my
But nobody warned us about those
Someone told a lie

Now we don't trust in each other's faces
And I don't know what to think about you
'Cause we can't stand in each other's places
And I can't trade with you

We've had times together where the sparks would fly
But in stormy weather we stood side by side
Now we're cold and distant, watching love roll by
Just when truth was needed someone told a lie

Some folks say I'm a sinner
Some people claim I'm a saint
But nobody knows who's the winner
The truth was told too late

Now I was raised to believe that you're different
And I was told not to play with your kind
Does anyone know why they were so hell bent
On poisoning our minds?

Now we're cold and distant, watching love go by
Just when truth was needed someone told a lie
But I'll do what I have to you do what you can
Just to keep on searching for the pride of man

All those tears we wasted wondering why
All those years were wasted fighting lies

Someone told me about your
Somebody gossiped about my
But nobody warned us about those
Someone told a lie

Now we don't trust in each other's faces
And I don't know what to think about you
'Cause we can't stand in each other's places
And I can't trade with you

We've had times together where the sparks would fly
But in stormy weather we stood side by side
Now we're cold and distant, watching love roll by
Just when truth was needed someone told a lie

But I'll do what I have to, you'll do what you can
Just to keep on searching for the pride of man
