Someone Told A Lie Lyrics - Hour Of The Wolf - Steppenwolf

Someone told me about your 

Somebody gossiped about my 

But nobody warned us about those 

Someone told a lie 

Now we don't trust in each other's faces 

And I don't know what to think about you 

'Cause we can't stand in each other's places 

And I can't trade with you 

We've had times together where the sparks would fly 

But in stormy weather we stood side by side 

Now we're cold and distant, watching love roll by 

Just when truth was needed someone told a lie 

Some folks say I'm a sinner 

Some people claim I'm a saint 

But nobody knows who's the winner 

The truth was told too late 

Now I was raised to believe that you're different 

And I was told not to play with your kind 

Does anyone know why they were so hell bent 

On poisoning our minds? 

Now we're cold and distant, watching love go by 

Just when truth was needed someone told a lie 

But I'll do what I have to you do what you can 

Just to keep on searching for the pride of man 

All those tears we wasted wondering why 

All those years were wasted fighting lies 

Someone told me about your 

Somebody gossiped about my 

But nobody warned us about those 

Someone told a lie 

Now we don't trust in each other's faces 

And I don't know what to think about you 

'Cause we can't stand in each other's places 

And I can't trade with you 

We've had times together where the sparks would fly 

But in stormy weather we stood side by side 

Now we're cold and distant, watching love roll by 

Just when truth was needed someone told a lie 

But I'll do what I have to, you'll do what you can 

Just to keep on searching for the pride of man
