She told me to listen close with a smile
I know she's been playing my mind for a while
She said: I gotta go out, gotta leave this world behind
She gave me a reason she can't hide
She told me to promise that I'll never cry
All I know she got cold she was gone in a blink of an eye

She's saying goodbye with a smile on her face
She's saying goodbye with no tears you can trace
How am I gonna survive, I'm just barely alive

I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (can you say it)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie (I wanna know)
I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (tell me baby)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie
Just a lie, just a little white lie
Oh, I need a lie

She broke me to pieces in just one night
I didn't even try to put up a fight
She said: I gotta get out, gonna leave this town tonight

She's saying goodbye with a smile on her face
She's saying goodbye with no tears you can trace
How am I gonna survive, I'm just barely alive

I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (can you say it)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie (I wanna know)
I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (tell me baby)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie
Just a lie, just a little white lie
Oh, I need a lie

I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (can you say it)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie (I wanna know)
I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (tell me baby)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie
Just a lie, just a little white lie
Oh, I need a lie

I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (can you say it)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie (I wanna know)
I need a little white lie
Just a little white lie (tell me baby)
I need a little white lie
Just a little of another lie
Just a lie, just a little white lie
Oh, I need a lie
