Lyrics - The Truth

Yeah yeah yeah...

Dooooh

Babe would you please be mine

(My)

Subject…..

My Subject… (repeated) yeah

Doodoodoodoumdoumdoum

Doodoodoodoumdoumdoum

(music)

Do ooooh

Ooooh….. (repeated)

oh babe I -I II

I lied

I said you were the truth

you took it as the truth

and now I got you

but I don't want you like that

there only lives one love

and of that you can't compare to

and that's the bare-naked truth

(pause)

You knew

and I knew

but you didn't want to hear

what I didn't want to tell you

now we've got hard times….

and now there's no love at home

when separate we build so alone

but we can't stand to be together

to talk about it

had time

to inc

thoughts instead

of bodies

this can't be love

(pause) what if we

produced a shorty

hard times would still be visual

within this love

within our love

this can't be love

and that's the bare-naked

You took it as the truth

and now I got you

but I don't want you like that

there only lives one love

and of that you can't compare to

and that's the bare-naked truth

I said you were the truth

you took it as the tru-u-uth

we can't stand to be together

to talk about it

but we can't stand to be

apart long enough to hear this thing baby

you and I started off good

findin' time to spend time

I said what you wanted to hear

now you need to go

I lied

I said you were the truth

you took it as the truth

and now I got you

but I don't want you like that

there only lives one love

and of that you can't compare to

and that's the bare-naked truth

and you need to

take that as the truth

If our words were truly fact

we probably still wouldn't have love

but we would love what we had

but we don't

reality is we like

now you and I must say goodbye

can't you see the

bare-naked start to speak

I'm a young man

world is mine

I shoulda' been

straight with you from the beginning

you probably wasn't even lookin' for a man

(pause) oh

this time has been

no doubt interesting

but now that we broke up

I'm thinking this mighta' been love

this coulda been love

damn what the…

i'ts just my luck
