[Verse 1]
I don't care what you've been, it's just what you are today
We'll just turn our heads when idle gossip flies
After all is said and done, in my heart you're still the one
[Refrain]
We can live and love in spite of wicked lies
[Verse 2]
The memory of your past cannot forever last
So, chin up darlin', dry those pretty eyes
Though your world has fell apart, there's a new one in my heart
[Refrain]
And a place for you in spite of wicked lies
[Verse 3]
Why they want to hurt you so, dare I like to really know
Are they jealous of a love they couldn't hold?
For I know it isn't true all these things they say of you
And I know your love is true as finest gold
[Verse 4]
The memory of your past cannot forever last
So, chin up darlin', dry those pretty eyes
For I want no one but you, no one else will ever do
[Refrain]
We can live and love in spite of wicked lies
