F          Dm             A#      F
I know somebody and they cry for you.
F          Dm                A#       F
They lie awake at night and dream of you.
F          Dm         A#        F                  Dm  A# F
I bet you never even know they do, but somebody's crying.

I know somebody and they called your name
A million times and still you never came
They go on loving you just the same
I know that somebody's trying

Chorus:
      F  A# F A#
So please
   F        A#       F        A#
Return the love you took from me
   F     A# F A#
Oh please
 F       A#         F   A#
Let me know if it can't be me
              F         Dm  A# F
I know when somebody's lying
              F         Dm  A# F
I know when somebody's lying

             F          Dm  A# F
I know that somebody's lying,
                        Dm  A# F
I know that somebody's lying.

Give me a sign and let me know if we're through
If you don't love me like I love you
But if you cry at night the way I do
I'll know that somebody's lying

Chorus:
So please return the love you took from me
Or please let me know if it can't be me
I know when somebody's lying
I know when somebody's lying
