White Lies Lyrics

This ain't fair, but I fear
I traveled here alone 'cause of you
Think I may be daydreamin', baby
But I know, I know what I still don't mean to you.

While I try
While I try
While I try
Don't start tellin'
White lies
You better talk it over
White lies
Everywhere I go I'm hearin'
White lies

Tellin' everybody that I love you
Tellin' everybody that I love you, yeah

Ramble on, stars set and gone
And I feel like I've been broken inside
Tell me I'm wrong, pretty lady
'Cause the strong part of me keep on by your side

While I try (come and listen, baby)
While I try (don't be mean)
While I try
Don't start tellin'
White lies
You better talk it over
White lies
Everywhere I go I'm hearin'
White lies

Tellin' everybody that I love you
Tellin' everybody that I love you, yeah

While I try (don't be mean, baby)
While I try
While I try
Don't start tellin'
White lies
You better talk it over
White lies
Everywhere I go I'm hearin'
White lies

Tellin' everybody that I love you
Tellin' everybody that I love you, yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
