Little White Lies
Heaven in Deceit: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Little White Lies'
Lyrics
The moon was all aglow
The moon was shining brightly.
But heaven was in your eyes
You looked heavenly or angelic.
The night that you told me
On the night you confessed.
Those little white lies
You admitted to telling small untruths.
The stars all seemed to know
The stars seemed aware.
You didn't mean all those sighs
You didn't genuinely mean the deep breaths or sounds of longing.
The night that you told me
On the night of your confession.
Those little white lies
You acknowledged telling harmless lies.
I try, but there's no forgetting
I make an effort, but the memories persist.
When evenin' appears
As evening arrives.
I sigh but there's no regretting
I express regret without reservation.
In spite of my tears
Despite shedding tears.
Who wouldn't believe those lips
Anyone would trust those lips.
Who wouldn't believe those eyes
Anyone would trust those eyes.
The night that you told me
On the night you admitted to falsehoods.
Those little white lies
Confession of minor untruths.
I try, but there's no forgetting
I make an effort, but the memories persist.
When evenin' appears
As evening arrives.
I sigh but there's no regretting
I express regret without reservation.
In spite of my tears
Despite shedding tears.
The Devil was in your heart
There was a deceptive or untrustworthy aspect in your emotions.
But Heaven was in your eyes
But your eyes appeared divine or pure.
The night that you told me
On the night you confessed to telling lies.
Those little white lies
You admitted to small untruths.
Those lies
Those lies.
Teeny-weeny little white lies
Very small and harmless lies.
