Lyrics

To Tell The Truth by Glenn Warren

He whispered he had something sad to say;
When I heard the word "Goodbye" I turned my eyes away;
His heart would take it hard if he could see...
His leaving hurt him more than it hurt me.

Chorus: A word...a look...a touch...I might have made him stay...
But I knew...the decent thing to do...
Was let him walk away;
He cried, "what did I do?" I lied, "It wasn't you..."
As he walked out my door;
To Tell The Truth...would only hurt him more.

I'll take all the blame...I know he didn't understand...
Our rose of love was fading in our hands;

Chorus: A word...a look...a touch...I might have made him stay...
But I knew...the decent thing to do...
Was let him walk away;
He cried, "what did I do?" I lied, "It wasn't you..."
As he walked out my door;
To Tell The Truth...would only hurt him more.
