Kirsty MacColl - One Little Lie Lyrics

I hear the lines on the telegraph

Buzz in my head

I have to shut them out

My ears to the ground

But I try to stand up

And straighten out

Forget my doubt

cos I couldnt bear to lose you

Youre the only one I care for

But I cant lock out the rumours

I shut my eyes so I wont see because



One little lie can go a long way

One little lie can go a long way

Would I learn to trust again some day



I try to ask but my tongue gets tied

When I guess the answer

If you turned your head away from me

I know Id stand there forever

Vaught out in time by a line

That I wanted you to deny

And youd laught and laugh til I cried and cried

I cant shut out the rumours

Burning inside me all the time



One little lie can go a long way . . .



Every day is turning away

I feel something new

If I cant put my trust in you then

Weve got nothing worth hanging on to



Its hard to talk sometimes now

You seem so far away

Am I losing my mind

Oh help me please

Say its not true what the people say

It hurts

In my hear

cos I couldnt bear to lose you

Youre the only one I care for

But I cant forget the rumours

Dont shut your eyes so I wont see because



One little lie can go a long way . . .
