James Blunt – The Truth lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a long, lonely road
That I've walked on my own
Never thought I'd end up in this place (Ooh-ooh)
I went fast, I went slow
Then I gave up all hope
‘Cause I know, either way, it's the same (Ooh-ooh)


[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm not tryna find somebody
‘Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh-ooh)
Yeah, the real thing is gone
Now I wish I could hold you

[Chorus]
I wish that all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go through my worse so I know that I just needed you
Oh-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-oh
And darling, that's the truth
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
I don't lie anymore
In a heap on the floor
‘Cause I'm clear on the road I must take (Ooh-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm not tryna find somebody
‘Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh-ooh)
I'm getting close, stumbling over everything I need to say to you

[Chorus]
I wish that all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go through my worse so I know that I just needed you
Oh-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-oh
And darling, that's the truth
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And darling, that's the truth
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
I was searching, Heavenly Father
If you're out there, leave a light on
‘Cause the distance is getting wider
And I know I've gotta find ya

[Chorus]
I wish that all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go through my worse so I know that I just needed you
Oh-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-oh
And darling, that's the truth
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And darling, that's the truth
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And darling, that's the truth
