A little lie Hi everybody! I'm trying to practice the verbs to lie (not telling the truth) and to lie (in a bed). I hope you like this little text. I will thank your corrections. A little lie A white lie I tell you one once I tell you two Because it hurts less Than telling you the truth When I lay beside you with him in my mind Don't blame me Because it's easier to dream of him without you noticing Than telling you that our thing is over I have lain in our bed and looked at you in the shadows Trying to remember when all were rainbows and flowers Realizing that my lies aren´t enough to keep this working Lying every time I kiss you Lying to myself thinking that everything is going to be okay
