She picked up his shirt off the floor behind her bathroom door
When the truth caught her eye
She trembled inside
She made up a thousand excuses
And Lord they all sounded so foolish
Face to face with the one thing she couldn't deny
Lipstick don't lie
Cheatin' hearts walk alibis talk
Sometimes a smile can erase the doubt
Kisses won't tell the rest just may veil
What a heart can't figure out
You can fool a true believer with the innocent wink of an eye
But everyone knows lipstick don't lie
That night when he got in from work
She tried to pretend not to hurt
But one look at him she started to cry
He made up a thousand excuses
And Lord they all sounded so foolish
She dropped his shirt on the table
And said don't even try
Lipstick don't lie
Cheatin' hearts walk alibis talk
Sometimes a smile can erase the doubt
Kisses won't tell the rest just may veil
What a heart can't figure out
You can fool a true believer with the innocent wink of an eye
But everyone knows lipstick don't lie
