The Truth Songtext
von Trent Willmon

Tell ′em all I'm on vacation
Say I went to visit friends
That you ain′t seen or heard from me in quite a while
When they ask you where I've been

Tell 'em I′m out on the west coast
Where it don′t ever rain
And I'm probably doin′ fine

Just don't tell ′em I've gone crazy
That I′m still strung out over you
Tell 'em anything you want to
Just don't tell ′em all the truth
Don′t tell 'em all the truth

Tell ′em all I'm out in Vegas
Throwing every dollar I have away
Tell ′em that I must be into something bad for me
'Cause I sure lost a lot of weight


Tell ′em I'm out on the road
With some old rock and roll band
Living like a gypsy king

Just don't tell ′em I′ve gone crazy
That I'm still strung out over you
Tell ′em anything you want to
Just don't tell ′em all the truth
Don't tell ′em all the truth

The truth is that I'm asking you to lie
And we both know that it ain't right
But if you ever loved me, please
Baby, have mercy on me, yeah

Tell ′em anything you want to
Just don′t tell 'em all the truth
Don′t tell 'em all the truth

I still need you
Yeah, baby, that′s the truth
I still love you
Yeah, baby, that's the truth
