In A Small Moment Lyrics - Carly Simon

(Carly Simon) 

In a small moment 

She accepted credit for something she did not do 

She said she'd done the water color in her bedroom 

But it was done by a friend from school 

Just a little lie 

No one would discover 

At least not very soon 

In a small moment 

Just a little lie 

When she wasn't looking it just slipped on by

In a small moment 

In a restaurant where she worked the late night shift 

She short changed a sailor and made five 

You could never really call it a theft 

Just a little lie 

Swept up in her apron and kept as a well deserved gift 

In a small moment 

Just a little lie 

When she wasn't looking it just slipped on by 

In a small moment 

She cheated on her lover and placed it in the back of her mind 

As long as nobody knew the truth about her 

It could never really be unkind 

Just a little lie 

that slipped beside her as she tossed and turned in her alibis

In a small moment 

Just a little lie 

When she wasn't looking it just slipped on by 

Just a little lie 

When she wasn't looking it jsut slipped on by 

Slipped on by
