This heart does not know how to lie.
Even if spoken, a lie is still a lie, isn't it?
This young age does not know how to lie.
Even if spoken, a lie is still a lie, isn't it?
There is no lie here at all.
There is no flaw in this dream.
Love usually blossoms without words... hey ye ya.
Oh, this heart does not know how to lie.
Even if spoken, a lie is still a lie, isn't it?
This young age does not know how to lie.
Even if spoken, a lie is still a lie, isn't it?
Oh ooooo ho oooh oh ooooo ho oooh
Oh ooooo ho oooh oh ooooo ho oooh
With our love trapped inside our friendship,
Who can we go to and plead our case?
This isn't a crime we planned to commit.
There is no ground left to fight our battle, oh ho.
I do not know where I went and lost myself.
Now, I can never return back to where I was.
My heart tells me your love is all it truly needs... ye ye ye ya.
This heart does not know how to lie.
Even if spoken, a lie is still a lie, isn't it?
This young age does not know how to lie.
Even if spoken, a lie is still a lie, isn't it?
