Lyrics
TRUTH HURTS © 2004
Words and Music by Keith Worman (aka Keith Wilson)
It was a gift of broken promises
Wrapped in shattered dreams
Tell me how the eagle flies
On broken wings
Please don?t talk of destiny
And better things to come
This year, next year, sometime soon
We?ll still be on the run
Oh baby truth hurts
The truth hurts
Every time
The truth hurts
The truth hurts
So don?t tell lies
I don?t need to sleep on it
That won?t change a thing
You see I found out what it takes
To sweep you off your feet
Praying for a miracle
A twist of fate
I don?t want to live to fight
One more day
Oh baby truth hurts
The truth hurts
Hurts so much
The truth hurts
The truth hurts
It hurts enough
Go back to Neverland
Go back to sleep
You build castles in the sand
Too close to the sea
Standing in the wishing well
Your head up in the clouds
I?ve had enough let me off
Your merry-go-round
Oh baby truth hurts
The truth hurts
Every time
The truth hurts
The truth hurts
So don?t tell lies
The truth hurts
The truth hurts
It hurts enough
The truth hurts
The truth hurts
It hurts enough
Your gift of broken promises
Wrapped in shattered dreams
Tell me how the eagle flies
On broken wings
Please don?t talk of destiny
And better things to come
This year, next year, sometime soon
We?ll still be on the run
You know the truth hurts
The truth hurts
Every time
