LITTLE ACTS OF TREASON
(Carlene Carter)


Carlene Carter - 1995


You could say that we were destined for one another's arm
Or maybe we were wishing for the moon and stars
No matter what the reason, it's a deadly game we play
These little acts of treason will see the light of day

You tell me you don't love her, then tell me why you stay
You made me a believer, you said it'd be okay
Now I'm standin' in the darkness and we hold each other tight
These little acts of treason have never felt so right

With a passion as pure as an angel's heart
While rivers flow we'll never part
With a passion that's blind to all who can see
These little acts of treason tell on you and me

(Instrumental Break)

I don't wanta be a liar, I wanna tell the truth
But I'll probably burn in fire, these things I do for you
So I'll rage at the heavens and love ya deep inside
These little acts of treason are so hard to hide
These little acts of treason have never felt so right
These little acts of treason are so hard to hide
