I Will Not Lie

James Taylor

Transposer:

[Intro] I will not lie I will not lie. I will not lie I will not lie for you. [Verse 1] Every time I see you fooling around on him I can’t help but remember that he calls me his friend. [Chorus] It’s only right for me to tell you when it’s the wrong thing to do. It’s only right that you should know If he comes to me I will not lie for you no I won’t lie for you. [Verse 2] It’s hard enough to see him stumbling blind I refuse to see him lose you and me at the same time. [Chorus] It’s only right for me to tell you when it’s the wrong thing to do. It’s only right that you should know If he comes to me I will not lie for you no I won’t lie for you. [Bridge] To come here as your friend and have you come on like my lover like to bring things to an end between myself and my brother. If it was any other man I would not interfere But if you come on to me again I don’t see how to stand clear. [Chorus] It’s only right for me to tell you when it’s the wrong thing to do. It’s only right that you should know If he comes to me I will not lie for you no I won’t lie for you. [Instrumental] [Verse 3] If it was any other man I would not interfere But if you come on to me again I don’t see how to stand clear. [Chorus] It’s only right for me to tell you when it’s the wrong thing to do. It’s only right that you should know If he comes to me I will not lie for you no I won’t lie for you. [Outro] No I won’t lie for you little girl I won’t lie for you. No I won’t lie to him for you I will not lie for you.

La chanson aborde le dilemme moral auquel fait face un homme qui se retrouve pris entre son amitié avec un autre homme et son attirance pour la partenaire de ce dernier. Il observe que cette femme ne lui est pas fidèle et se sent obligé de lui dire qu'il ne peut pas mentir pour la protéger. Il tient à souligner l'importance de l'honnêteté dans les relations, même si cela signifie mettre en danger des liens précieux. Le contexte de cette situation délicate souligne les tensions qui peuvent exister dans les relations humaines, où l'amour, l'amitié et la loyauté se croisent parfois de manière complexe. Cela reflète, d'une manière poignante, les choix difficiles que l'on doit parfois faire pour rester fidèle à ses valeurs.
