A Little White Lie Lyrics

A Little White Lie lyrics

(Tanya narrating)

Once upon a time there was a happy family (a sweet
little baby)



There was a baby girl, a daddy, and a mommy( a sweet
little baby)



Mommy kept a secret she told a little white lie 



and when she tucked the baby in at night, she sang her this
lullaby



Verse 1:

You got your daddy's smile, you got his
eyes

I feel my heart breaking everytime you cry

I'm gonna burn in
hell, but its no sacrifice

Your stability is worth a million lies

I
see your daddy, in everything you do

And if you could talk, I'll bet
you'll talk like him too

but he can't be your daddy, I hope you
understand

the man who thinks he's your father 

is a much better
man

Maybe one day, you'll end up crying on Rikki Lake

but baby its
a chance your momma's willing to take

'Cause I love you! even if my heart
is gonna break

Aint no reason you should suffer for my mistake



Chorus: And so I lie, baby I try, and it kills me inside

but I'm gonna
live with this until the day I die

and I hurt, baby, oh how I hurt

but I know what you're worth, yeah

so I'm gonna live with this 

until I hit the dirt, someday



(Narrating)

And everyday by
herself the momma cried and cried

but at night she smiled when the daddy
was by her side

There were times she almost told him, and it really broke
her heart

but she forced herself to keep the secret that was tearing her
apart



Verse 2:

Now I can't sleep at night

I've lost my
appetite

everybody keeps saying

"The baby looks kind of light"

and I tell them that every newborn baby looks the same

while I'm
praying to God, "Please make your color change"

the emotions on his face
when he's looking at you

I
