I Don’t Want To Hear (no lie)
I’ve been calling you on the telephone.
Your voice comes on, saying you’re not at home
“Leave a message please, and I’ll return your call”
It’s now going on two weeks, and not a ring at all.
If you’re calling it quits, girl, I can take it
If you’re trying to think of a cover story
To ease your mind, baby, don’t worry
(cause) I don’t want to hear, no lie
I don’t want to hear, no lie
Just let that thought in your mind die
I don’t want to hear, no lie
I was a good lover to you
There was nothing in this world
That I wouldn’t try to do for you
I would go without things I needed for myself,
baby, just to please you
Girl, I was going to pop the [big] question,
But now, it’s on hold, because of our shady relation
If you’re calling it quits, girl, I can take it
If you’re trying to think of a cover story
To ease your mind, baby, don’t worry
(cause) I don’t want to hear, no lie
I don’t want to hear, no lie
Just let that thought in your mind die
I don’t want to hear, no lie
I don’t want to hear, no lie
I don’t want to hear, no lie
Just let that thought in your mind die
I don’t want to hear, no lie
I only have a few seconds left, to say,
What I have to say, to you, on your answering machine,
And girl, I’ll keep it clean
Love has no guarantee, but in me baby, you had a true devotee
