The Truth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She gets up with her head swung down low down
Steps into the room
Please listen while I sing my song to you
"Cuz it all slips away, it ends too soon
How in the hell did I get here
Let me tell you all why I sing the blues
Been in a daze for ten years
But I still can sing the truth
Heaven knows where we all go
All we have is what we get
When it's gone, when will I know
Because I haven't got it yet
She's swayin' to the swing of the music
Her arms wave in the air
She turns her head, our eyes make contact
It lets me know
How in the hell did I get here
Let me tell you all why I sing the blues
Been in a daze for ten years
But I can still sing the truth
Heaven knows where we all go
All we have is what we get
When it's gone, when will I know
Because I haven't got it yet
Did you find that ride? Did you finally fly?
While I sit here, kickin' and bitchin'
Sayin' gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme what's mine
I thought I had it all, I wanted more
No need for you, I slammed the door
I cut you lose
What are the chances that I'd walk in here
And find the truth...
