One Little Lie

[Verse 1:] I hear the lines on the telegraph Buzzing my head I have to shut them out My ears to the ground But I try to stand up Straighten out Forget my doubt Cause I couldn't bear to lose you You're the only one I care for But I can't lock out the rumors I shut my eyes so I won't see because [Chorus:] One little lie can go a long way One little lie can go a long way Would I learn to trust again someday? [Verse 2:] 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 Caught out in time by a line That I wanted you to deny And you'd laughed and laugh 'Til I cried and cried I can't shut out the rumors Burning inside me all the time [Repeat Chorus:] [Bridge:] 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 [Repeat Chorus:]
