A Little White Lie

By Tanya Stephens

Album:

(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 it's 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 it's 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 couldn't tell he aint your papa even if I wanted to

He's got your picture tattooed on his arm

Now he's bragging to his friends about his firstborn

Oh God and I love him really I do if he ever found out it

Would kill me too now I'm caught between a rock and a

Really hard place I'd give anything to keep that smile on his face

Chorus

(Narrating)

Mommy kept the family together the best way she could

Cause she knew in this case the truth would do more harm than good

What the daddy didn't know didn't hurt him

He had no cause to fret and that's as close to happily ever after as anyone can get

Chorus out
