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
I went fast, I went slow, then I gave up all hope
'Cause I know either way it's the same

And I′m not trying to find somebody
′Cause no one else but you will do
Yeah, the real thing is gold
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
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
And darling that′s the truth

I don't lie anymore, in a heap on the floor
′Cause I'm clear on the road I must take


And I'm not trying to find somebody
′Cause no one else but you will do
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 worst
So I know that I just needed you, 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
And darling that′s the truth
And darling that's the truth

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 worst
So I know that I just needed you, 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
And darling that′s the truth
And darling that's the truth
And darling that′s the truth
