Jon Brion
I Believe She’s Lying
[Verse 1]
Although she's none the wiser
Although we've barely met
I can recognize her
From the treatment that I get

[Verse 2]
So it's my duty to advise her
If she breaks the rules
I've said I'll quit though
I'll admit that hasn't happened yet

[Chorus]
I believe she's lying
I trust her to undermine my faith in her, in time
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
Given time

[Verse 3]
As sure as she is sitting here
She's sure that she's awake
And as soon as we're committing
We're admitting our mistake

[Verse 4]
So of course it's only fitting
That the course we're going to take
Is drawn and whereupon
I'm slamming on the brakes
[Chorus]
I believe she's lying
I trust her to undermine my faith in her, in time
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
Given time
It's a given, given time

[Verse 5]
The power of suggestion
The element of chance
And the subject now in question
Is the same old song and dance

[Verse 6]
And the time that we invest in
Setting traps out in advance
So we could spend the weekend
Staring in a trance

[Chorus]
I believe she's lying
I trust her to undermine my faith in her, in time
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
Given time
It's a given, given time
It's a given, given time
