White Lies

WHITE LIES
          Verse 1
You're in my mind, you're still part of me.
Here in my mind, where my heart can see.
Though you are gone, I go on--
and your memory is still in my mind!

             Verse 2
Something that's borrowed and something blue.
Something that's old, and then something new.
I get along--but it's wrong--
that your memory is still in my mind!

            CHORUS
I take thee forever love and cherish!
Sickness and good health, to love and cherish!
Poverty and wealth! Til death do us part!
I take thee forever, I'm forever!
I'm a part of you! My love's forever!
Even little white lies come from the heart!

White lies. White lies.

Repeat Verse 2
