Liar
Camila Cabello Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't care if you're here
Or if you're not alone
I don't care, it's been too long
It's kinda like we didn't happen
The way that your lips move
The way you whisper slow
I don't care, it's good as gone (uh)
I said I won't lose control, I don't want it (ooh)
I said I won't get too close, but I can't stop it

Oh no, there you go, making me a liar
Got me begging you for more
Oh no, there I go, startin' up a fire
Oh no, no (oh no)
Oh no, there you go, you're making me a liar
I kinda like it though
Oh no, there I go, startin' up a fire
Oh no, no (ooh)

You're watching, I feel it (hey)
I know I shouldn't stare (yeah, yeah)
I picture your hands on me (I think I wanna let it happen)
But what if, you kiss me? (Yeah)
And what if, I like it?
And no one sees it

I said I won't lose control, I don't want it (ooh)
I said I won't get too close, but I can't stop it (no)

Oh no, there you go, making me a liar
Got me begging you for more
Oh no, there I go, startin' up a fire
Oh no, no (oh no)
Oh no, there you go, you're making me a liar
I kinda like it though
Oh no, there I go, startin' up a fire
Oh no, no

Oh no, no, no
Here comes trouble, no, no
Startin' up a fire

I don't believe myself when I
Say that I don't need you, oh
I don't believe myself when I say it
So, don't believe me

Oh no, there you go, you're making me a liar
Got me begging you for more
Oh no, there I go, startin' up a fire
Oh no, no (oh no)
Oh no, there you go, you're making me a liar
I kinda like it though
Oh no, there I go, startin' up a fire
Oh no, no

Yeah, uh, yeah
Uh, yeah
Oh no, no, no, oh no, no, no
Oh no, you're making me a liar
'Cause my clothes are on the floor

Huh, huh, huh, uh




Oh no, no, no
Another fire

Overall Meaning

In Camila Cabello's song Liar, she sings about being with someone she shouldn't be with, but can't help herself because of the chemistry and attraction between them. The first verse sets the tone for the rest of the song, with Camila stating that she doesn't care whether the person she is with is there or not, and that it's as if they never happened. However, the way their lips move and the way they whisper slow is something that Camila can't ignore, even though she says she won't lose control or get too close to this person. The chorus then comes in with the repetition of "Oh no, there you go, making me a liar," solidifying the idea that Camila is going against her initial thoughts and desires. She begs for more of this person, even though she knows it's not the right thing to do.


The second verse delves deeper into Camila's internal struggle with her attraction towards this person. She knows she shouldn't be staring or picturing their hands on her, but the thought of being kissed by them is something she can't shake off. The repetition of "I said I won't lose control, I don't want it" shows that Camila is telling herself not to let her emotions take over, but she still can't resist. The bridge of the song adds a more playful element to it, with Camila saying "my clothes are on the floor" and indicating that things have progressed further with this person.


Overall, Liar is a song about giving into temptation and the irresistible chemistry between two people, even though it may not be the best decision. It's about contradicting oneself and going against initial thoughts and desires.
