written by Linda Thompson and Betty Cook   © 1985 Linda Thompson / Firesign Music Ltd.      They say a woman's a fool for weeping   A fool to break her own heart   But I can't hold the secret I'm keeping   I'm breaking apart      Can't seem to mind my own business   Whatever I try turns out wrong   I seem like my own false witness   And I can't go on      I cover my ears I close my eyes   Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies   Telling me lies      You told me you needed my company   And I believed in your flattering ways   Told me you needed me forever   Nearly gave you the rest of my days      Should've seen you for what you are   Should never have come back for more   Should've locked up all my silver   Brought the key back to your door      I cover my ears I close my eyes   Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies   Telling me lies      You don't know what a chance is   Until you have to seize one   You don't know what a man is   Until you have to please one   Don't put your life in the hands of a man   With a face for every season   Don't waste your time in the arms of a man   Who's no stranger to treason      I cover my ears I close my eyes   Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies   Telling me lies      I cover my ears I close my eyes   Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies   I cover my ears I close my eyes   Still hear your voice and it's telling me lies
