Little Lie Lyrics

I told a little lie or two when I spoke to you
On the phone the other night
What's a girl supposed to do when the bitter truth
Turns into a sweeter lie
I didn't wanna tell you, tell you
Didn't wanna tell you anything you didn't wanna hear
Look a little closer than the truth becomes clear

I told a little lie or three when you looked at me
And asked if I love you still
You don't wanna know what's real, how I really really feel
Never did and you never will (no, no, no)
I didn't wanna tell you, tell you
Didn't wanna tell you anything you didn't wanna hear
Look a little closer than the truth becomes clear

I told a little lie or four with you at my door
Wonderin' where the hell I've been
Didn't wanna tell you, tell you
Didn't wanna tell you anything you didn't wanna hear
I didn't wanna tell you, tell you
Didn't wanna tell you anything you didn't wanna hear
Look a little closer than the truth
Look a little closer than the truth
Look a little closer than the truth becomes clear
