Song that gave a false impression (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lied

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'song' is the first definition.
(type of German song)

'gave a false impression' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'that' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for lied that I've seen before include "Spoke falsely" , "Produced pork pie" , "German art song" , "Told stories" , "untrue" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
