The Truth

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
