Lyrics for Gwen Stefani – Baby Don’t Lie
Uh huh, here we go
We been walking down this road for sometime
And you love, and you love me good, no lie
But there’s something behind those eyes, those eyes
That you can’t, that you can’t disguise, disguiseBaby don’t, baby don’t, baby don’t lie
I don’t wanna cry no longer
Baby don’t, baby don’t, baby don’t lie
I’m a’ need a love that’s stronger
I’ll tell you know, tell you know, tell you know why, know why
If we ever give up, then we’re gonna die
Look me in the eye
Baby don’t lieWe been walking down this road for sometime
And you love, and you love me good, no lie
But there’s something behind those eyes, those eyes
That you can’t, that you can’t disguise, disguiseBaby tell me there’s nothing below (ooh)
