Lyrics

I saw you out on the riverwalk
We stopped and talked for a little while

Glad to see that you’re doing fine
“This must be little Caroline” and you said

“Don’t the years just travel by when you finally find your place”
I said, “Yeah, I know just what you mean”
And forced a smile across my face

Chorus
Everybody lies
Everybody tells a story
We all justify to get us through another day
Telling you the truth
Would leave me with my heart wide open
And there’s no shame in wanting to survive
Everybody lies

I know I made the one mistake
I broke a trust you can’t unbreak

Cause I set love up like dominoes
And knocked it down and watched it go

Told myself I didn’t care, that someday I’d forget
But now I finally understand 
Just how true it is (that)
