White Lie

They asked me what I would do if I had a million dollars,

And I know that I would spend every cent on her.

I would pay to see her laughter, pay to hear her stories.

I would use those million dollar-bills to get her love.

But the only price tag love comes with is luck,

which I'm short in supply.

So I plaster on a smile, and tell a white lie.
