One Little Lie Lyrics - Kirsty Maccoll

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 couldn't bear to lose you 

You're the only one I care for 

But I can't lock out the rumours 

I shut my eyes so I won't 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 I'd stand there forever 

Vaught out in time by a line 

That I wanted you to deny 

And you'd laught and laugh til I cried and cried 

I can't 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 can't put my trust in you then 

We've got nothing worth hanging on to 

It's hard to talk sometimes now 

You seem so far away 

Am I losing my mind 

Oh help me please 

Say it's not true what the people say 

It hurts 

In my hear 

cos I couldn't bear to lose you 

You're the only one I care for 

But I can't forget the rumours 

Don't shut your eyes so I won't see because 

One little lie can go a long way . . .
