Somethings are best left unsaid
Lyrics
V1
It was just a little lie
As white as the driven snow
And like that cold façade
Hid the things you couldn’t know
V2
It just a little lie
Born in the absence of the light
A moment’s blackness in my heart
To keep the truth from sight
Chorus 1
But how could I just break your heart
How could I be that cruel
When truth is such a hurtful thing
Sometimes we need to bend the rules
V3
It was just a little word
“yes” or “no” for me to say
This simple but so complex thing
Has marked this red-letter day
V4
Yes just a little word
To confirm or to deny
But how could I just break your heart
So I told you that white lie
Chorus 2
But either way someone gets hurt
You with truth or me with shame
Inner conflict painted black and white
There are no shades of grey
