When it comes down to this
juliet she's caught on to the clues
you know the one's that she missed
now she's got the news
she understands
she's not all wrapped up in the palm of his hands
juliet she won't come down
her heads high in the castle her hearts underground
it's as if "she didn't know"
the truth about romeo
the tables have turned
juliet she's got this brand new idea
and a few lessons that she's learned
how could she be so blind
in a spotlight so clear
now she understands
she's not all wrapped up in the palm of his hands
juliet...
what if he did love her
it sure did not show
there's a certain kind of sincerity
and when you know you'll know
i think she should go now
the truth doesn't lie
the truth doesn't lie
the truth doesn't lie
The lyrics to Alan C. Duncan's song "The Truth" capture the story of Juliet realizing the truth about Romeo's love for her. The song describes how Juliet has caught on to the clues that she missed before and finally understands that she's not all wrapped up in the palm of his hands. It's clear that Romeo never truly loved her and Juliet was simply blinded by her infatuation. The tables have turned, and Juliet now has a brand new idea and a few lessons learned. The singer suggests that it is time for Juliet to go now that she knows the truth, as the truth does not lie.
The song highlights the theme of disillusionment and the pain of realizing the truth when it's too late. Juliet's realization about Romeo's love for her is a universal theme that can be applied to various aspects of life, such as relationships, career, and personal growth. The song's lyrics are poetic and symbolic, making it a timeless classic. Duncan's lyrics remind us of the importance of facing the truth, no matter how hard it may be, as it helps to move forward in life.

When it comes down to this
Let's be real, the situation is this:
juliet she's caught on to the clues
Juliet finally caught on to what was really happening
you know the one's that she missed
We all knew, but she was oblivious
the one's that we knew
The things we knew that she didn't
now she's got the news
Now she's aware of what's going on
she understands
She finally comprehends the situation
she's not all wrapped up in the palm of his hands
She's not under his spell anymore
juliet she won't come down
Juliet won't come down from her high tower
her heads high in the castle her hearts underground
She seems confident but she's struggling internally
it's as if "she didn't know"
It's as if she was living in denial
the truth about romeo
What Romeo was really like
the tables have turned
The situation has reversed
juliet she's got this brand new idea
Juliet has a new perspective
and a few lessons that she's learned
She learned a few things from the experience
how could she be so blind
How could she not have seen the truth before?
in a spotlight so clear
It was so obvious

She comprehends what's really happening
she's not all wrapped up in the palm of his hands
She's not under his influence anymore
juliet...
Juliet is still dealing with her situation
what if he did love her
What if he really did care?

But he didn't show it

There's a specific way that true feelings are expressed
and when you know you'll know
When you hear/feel true sincerity, you'll recognize it
i think she should go now
Maybe Juliet should move on from Romeo
the truth doesn't lie
The truth is true, it can't be denied or ignored.
the truth doesn't lie
Again, the truth is true.
the truth doesn't lie
One more time, can't emphasize this enough: the truth is true.

Duncan is right and he was on a roll until Joe derailed it.
He's absolutely one of my favorite guests.
