Taylor Swift – I'd Lie lyrics
I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells
me about his night
And I count the colors in his eyes

He'll never fall in love
He swears, as he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing 'cause I hope he's wrong
And I
don't think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke, I fake a smile
But I know all his favorite songs

And I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He likes to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him...
I'd lie

He looks around the room
And innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on
Doesn't he know
That I've had him memorized for so long

He sees everything in black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody see me wishing he was mine

I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He likes to argue
Born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him...
I'd lie

He stands there, then walks away
My God, if I could only say
I'm holding every breath for you

He'd never tell you,
But he can play guitar
I think he can see through
Everything but my heart
First thought when I wake up,
My
God, he's beautiful
So I put on my make-up
And pray for a miracle

Yes I could tell you
His favorite color's green
He likes to argue
Oh, and it kills me
His sister's beautiful
He has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him...
If you ask me if I love him...
I'd lie

    My meanign tot his song is it fits me and my crush the only thing that is different is that he is born on the 29th and he let's people see him cry since there is a picture of him crying. And it just means so mucha nd I sing it all the time when I'm around him but he just doesn't know it. And he would never tell you that he really likes Romeo and Juliet espeically when Iw as juillet and he was romeo freshman year haha and I do wait for a miracle.

    This song means so much to me because of a guy I’ve know for 12 years now. He was my first boyfriend, Kyle. This song is literally us. He is born on July 17th, his favorite color is green, he has a beautiful step sister that he adores, he hates that he has his fathers eyes because he wasn’t around, he plays guitar for me to show me he loves me and to make me smile, he won’t cry in front of anyone I’ve never seen him cry and I’ve know him since he was 13 years old, and I do love him but I’d lie because I’m so scared to admit I still love him and get hurt. Sorry for the book and run on sentences. I wish I could have a future with him but he lives in Florida now and I’m in Michigan stuck in this tiny town. I don’t know how to move past this place and be who I am supposed to be because I don’t know what I’m meant for yet. I hope it ends with him and I in a house with a white picket fence. Maybe some day.

    I love this song. First, thanks for capitalizing 'God'. I'm a Christian, and whether you are or not, thank you. Taylor Swift rocks! I love her! And I agree with captain_carroll about the whole elementary school crush things, but I'm in the 7th grade, and someone found out about my crush nd told his best friend. It wasn't fun. So, umm, yeah I kinda lied. Hehe? Lol. Ok, well, I luvv taylor swift! She rocks!

    I'm in love with this amazing guy who has a boyfriend. He said he loved me to but I don't belive it anymore. He tells me a lot of things but I'm starting to think they are all lies. But just like the song, I know the one I love can play giture adn I know his favorite color is blue. And now when people ask if I still love him, I lie.

    This song means so much to me. I only have one guy friend and this describes him almost perfectly. His favorite color's green, we argue/annoy each other all the time, he would never let anybody see him cry, I don't let anybody see me.
    Wishing he was mine, he wouldn't tell you but he can play guitar, and I feel he can see through everything but my heart. And if you asked me if I loved him, I'd lie.

    I had this happen to me. In fact it still is. I know almost everything about this one guy but he is popular and has a girlfriend already. I am just this loser girl that nobody likes because most people just take advantage of me because I am somewhat of a nerd and I am a straight a student. Any suggestions. I am open to any. How do I get the guy I truly like without making a mess of things.

    I love him but he likes to mess my life up with a sexist joke that has 20 gets telling me to "be there ho" and it breaks my heart. This song is so true. He may not be born on the 17 but he loves to argue, his sisters beautiful, he definatly has his dads eyes, and if you asked me if I loved him. I would never tell you I think about him every time my mind can think. Love you reid A. K. A mr tutu what can you do when the one you love only thinks of you as a silly joke?

    She knows the guy very well unlike the others do because she's in love with him but won't admit it because of something like they might be not the same as before the might be away from her and she doesn't like that so she'll just be contented as just friends. (just like in my situation I didn't tell him coz his too old for me I'm just like a younger sis to her and he has already a girl friend) : '(

    I think it's about this boy. She knows everything about and he most likely doesn't see her. She thinks about him every minute and he tells her stuff he shares with noone else. She's probly anting him to know how she fells by telling him I simily know everthing about you. And the meaning of I'd lie is becuase ex: Do you like Ricky? No! Taylor lies insted of telling her true feelings. A great way to show she loves him but in a way that's say Maybe I do maybe I don't. Trust me! I'd lie!

    This song reminds me of me and a guy that I have liked since I was in the 6th grade. It just reminds me of him because I think of him all the time but when people ask me if I still like him or even loved him I would lie about it. I think that this song reminds a lot of girls of their relationship with guys. This song is really good.
