I think I know what you're about to say
I can see it in your eyes and on your face
We swore we never would

So while the words are still unspoken
Don't you think you should


[Chorus:]

Take a breath

Take a moment
Take your time
Before you lie

'Cause once you do
Love is different
Everything changes

Between you and I
And it gets easier every time
Oh and you can still change your mind

Before you lie

All I ask of you is honesty

We said that's how this love will always be
So careful what you say
'Cause it only takes a half a truth

To throw it all away

[Chorus]


It's up to you
This can go go either way

You get to choose
Which road we take
So


[Chorus]


Before you lie
Before you lie
