In Lite some rules are changed (simplified) and there is lack of many elements). GURPS lite is great to decide if this is system for you, without spending money for just testing. But if answer is "Yes, it's system for me, I want to play in GURPS", you definitely should buy Basic Set.
Don't feel bad, I made the same mistake myself. I bought Space first and then want back and bought the basic set. Its worth it though. Great stuff.
