[Intro]
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Never don't lie
You can run if you want, but you can't hide
Telling you it's the truth, don't you ask why
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Kisses don't lie

[Verse 1]
Emotions come and go
Who knows how the wind will blow?
There's so little in this world to trust in
Seduce themselves with lies
Some don't realize
They call it love, but it's really only lusting

[Pre-Chorus]
So you see you and me
We're getting close to the danger zone
Show me how, tell me now
Should I stay or should I go?
'Cause I'm caught between 'yes' and 'no'

[Chorus]
'Cause when you kiss me
I feel everything that I've been missin'
I try to slow down, but my heart won't listen
And it's tearin' me all up inside
And when you touch me
I feel a rush, but I'm afraid that it might crush me
Should I put my trust in something I don't trust in?
I try to run, but there's no place to hide
'Cause baby, kisses don't lie

[Post-Chorus]
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Never don't lie
You can run if you want, but you can't hide
Telling you, it's the truth, don't you ask why
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Kisses don't lie

[Verse 2]
You whispered in my ear
But are your words sincere?
'Cause pretty words can cut just like a knife
You see, I'm nobody's fool
I play by my own rules
So please think twice before you step into my life

[Pre-Chorus]
So you see you and me
We're getting close to the danger zone
Show me how, tell me now
Should I stay or should I go?
'Cause I'm caught between 'yes' and 'no'

[Chorus]
'Cause when you kiss me
I feel everything that I've been missin'
I try to slow down, but my heart won't listen
And it's tearin' me all up inside
And when you touch me
I feel a rush, but I'm afraid that it might crush me
Should I put my trust in something I don't trust in?
I try to run, but there's no place to hide
'Cause baby, kisses don't lie

[Post-Chorus]
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Never don't lie
You can run if you want, but you can't hide
Telling you, it's the truth, don't you ask why
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Kisses don't lie
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Never don't lie
You can run if you want, but you can't hide
Telling you, it's the truth, don't you ask why
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Kisses don't lie

[Pre-Chorus]
So you see you and me
We're getting close to the danger zone
Show me how, tell me now
Should I stay or should I go?
'Cause I'm caught between 'yes' and 'no'

[Chorus]
'Cause when you kiss me
I feel everything that I've been missin'
I try to slow down, but my heart won't listen
And it's tearin' me all up inside
And when you touch me
I feel a rush, but I'm afraid that it might crush me
Should I put my trust in something I don't trust in?
I try to run, but there's no place to hide
'Cause baby, kisses don't lie

[Outro]
Kisses don't lie
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Never don't lie
You can run if you want, but you can't hide
Telling you, it's the truth, don't you ask why
Kisses don't
No, they don't
Kissses don't lie

Rihanna

A true pop icon, Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty is a singer, actress, and businesswoman from Saint Michael, Barbados. She was first discovered by American record producer Evan Rogers in 2003 and later signed a contract to Def Jam Recordings in 2004, after auditioning for its then-president, JAY-Z.

The following year, in 2005, she released her debut album Music of the Sun and its follow-up, A Girl Like Me, in 2006. Both albums did well commercially, but it wasn’t until the release of her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, in 2007 that poised Rihanna as an international pop star. It became her first album to receive a Grammy nomination (seven to be exact) and features one of her biggest hits, “Umbrella.”

Moving onto 2009, Rihanna released her fourth studio album, Rated R. It featured a darker and more atmospheric tone from her previous albums. She released her fifth studio album, Loud, the next year in 2010. It marked her return to making dance-pop records. That summer, she featured on Eminem’s smash hit, “Love the Way You Lie” and is one of her most popular features of all time.
