The Truth Songtext
von James Blunt

It′s a long, lonely road
That I've walked on my own
Never thought I′d end up in this place (oo-oo)
I went fast, I went slow
Then I gave up all hope
'Cause I know either way it's the same (oo-oo)

And I′m not tryna find somebody
′Cause no one else but you will do (oo-oo)
Yeah the real thing is gone
How I wish I could hold you

I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my worst so I know that I just needed you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
As I look out at the morning sun
There's no escape from the things I′ve done
And out of everything I've lost
Now I know that I just needed you (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that′s the truth (oh-oh-oh-oh)


I don't lie anymore in a heap on the floor
′Cause I'm clear on the road I must take (oo-oo)

And I'm not tryna find somebody
′Cause no one else but you will do (oo-oo)
I′m getting close to stumbling over everything I need to say to you

I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my worse so I know that I just needed you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
As I look out at the morning sun
There's no escape from the things I′ve done
And out of everything I've lost
Now I know that I just needed you (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that′s the truth (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that's the truth (oh-oh-oh-oh)

I will search with every fibre
If you′re out there, leave a light on
'Cause the distance is getting wider
And I know I've gotta find ya


I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my worse so I know that I just needed you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
As I look out at the morning sun
There′s no escape from the things I′ve done
And out of everything I've lost
Now I know that I just needed you (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that′s the truth (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that's the truth (oh-oh-oh-oh)

Darling, that′s the truth
