Little White Lies - Count Basie

The moon was all aglow

But heaven was in your eyes

The night that you told me

Those little white lies

The stars all seemed to know

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 evenin' appears

I sigh but there’s no regretting

In spite of my tears

Who wouldn’t believe those lips

Who wouldn’t believe those eyes

The night that you told me

Those little white lies

I try, but there’s no forgetting

When evenin' 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

Those lies

Teeny-weeny little white lies
