Little White Lies

Little White Lies
music & lyric by Walter Donaldson

'Twas just a night like this, filled with bliss, you led my heart astray.
'Twas just a real sweet chance, to learn romance,
In a perfect way, it was the end of a perfect day,
Say---

The moon was all aglow and heaven was in your eyes,
The night that you told me, those little white lies.
The stars all seemed to know, that you didn't mean all those sighs,
The night that you told me, those little white lies.

I try but there's no forgetting when ev'ning appears,
I sigh but there's no regretting in spite of my tears.

]The devil was in your heart, but heaven was in your eyes,
The night that you told me, those little white lies!

I try but there's no forgetting when ev'ning appears,
I sigh but there's no regretting in spite of my tears.

Who wouldn't believe those lips, who ever could doubt those eyes?
The night that you told me, those little white lies!
