Not to say you're lying, but you don't tell the truth.
And I wish I knew what you really mean to say.
Not to say I'm prying, but I would like some proof.
And I wish that you wouldn't lead me on this way.
Not to say you're trying to confuse me,
but I'd like some simple answers, please.

    STORIES, you tell me STORIES;
    and I don't know just what to believe.
    STORIES, so many STORIES;
    and I'm not one for being deceived.

I don't want to doubt you; I would like to believe.
And I trusted you for a couple blinded years.
People'd talk about you and tell me you deceived,
but I trusted you 'til I couldn't see too clear.
Now that fog is lifting and I have found
just how you've been spinning me around.

    CHORUS

        Twisting and turning with all your half-lies,
        you paint a pretty picture, but it's all a disguise.
        Your nose is longer ev'ry story you tell.
        You've really got me wond'ring what you're trying to sell.
        Wouldn't it seem a whole lot simpler
        if you didn't run the truth through the wringer?

I can't see a reason for saying what you do.
Could it be your way just to get attention paid?
Are you merely teasing or trying to undo
all the trust I gave? Do you want my love to fade?
Do you find it pleasing to mislead me?
Just when will the STORIES ever leave?

    CHORUS

To other breakup love song lyrics:   BACKING UP
To other negative love song lyrics:   ALL OVER YOU
I'M TRADING YOU IN
BEAUTY OF THE SCARS
DOWN ON THE SIDEWALK
DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH
SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE
I'M NOT THAT DESPERATE YET
SHE WILL NOT SAY SHE'S SORRY
SOMETIMES I JUST WANT TO CRY
MASSACRE ON VALENTINE'S NIGHT
NO WAY (THAT I'M GOING BACK HOME YET)
To the TOP
