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 . . .
