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 ...
