[Verse 1]
It sounds like a lie when you say it
Sounds like a lie 'cause it is
It don't matter how you try to play it
It don't matter which way it spins
It ain't rocket science, baby
It ain't arithmetic

[Chorus]
When you love someone
When you really love someone
You don't get drunk at a bar, jump in the car
Roll in the dark and go to far with someone
When you love someone

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm coming down off a promise
You're coming down off a buzz
Whether it's love or it's whiskey
Well, I guess we've both sobered up
Let's just go ahead and call this thing what it was

[Chorus]
Cause when you love someone
When you really love someone
You don't get drunk at a bar, jump in the car
Roll in the dark and go to far with someone
When you love someone
[Bridge]
Ooh, don't wanna hear you're sorry
Ooh, baby, don't waste your breath
Cause it sounds like a lie when you say it
It sounds like a lie 'cause it is

[Chorus]
When you love someone
When you really love someone
You don't get drunk at a bar, jump in the car
Roll in the dark and go to far with someone
When you love someone
If you really love someone
You don't get drunk at a bar, jump in the car
Roll in the dark and go to far with someone
Just break my heart with someone
When you love someone
When you love someone
