Rumour has it that your daddy's coming down He's gonna pay the rent Tell me baby, is this as good as life is gonna get It feels like there is a stranger standing in these shoes But, I know I can't lose me, 'cause then I'd be losing you I know I promised baby I would be the one to make our dreams come true I ain't too proud of all the struggles And the hard times we've been through When this cold world comes between us Please tell me you'll be brave 'Cause I can realize the danger when forgiveness fades away If you don't love me, lie to me 'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be Right now if you don't love me baby, lie to me Pour another cup of coffee, babe I got something to say to you I ain't got the winning ticket Not the one that's gonna pull us through No one said it'd be easy, let your old man take you home But know if you walk out on me That darling, I'd be gone If you don't love me, lie to me 'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be Right now if you can't love me baby, lie to me Baby, I can take it It's a bitch, but life's a roller coaster ride The ups and downs will make you scream sometimes It's hard believing that the thrill is gone But we got to go around again, so let's hold on If you don't love me, lie to me 'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be Right now if you can't love me baby, lie to me, lie to me Baby I can take it
