The Truth
C.I.S. Lyrics

Ran into an old friend yesterday
Encountered a friend from the past unexpectedly

Caught me by surprise when he called my name
Was surprised when the friend recognized me

He was a familiar face, from a chapter in my past
Knew him from a previous time in my life

Talked for a while, I smiled and then
Had a conversation and was cordial

Said that he was seeing somebody and
Revealed he was in a relationship

Told me this was gonna last
Said the relationship was serious

Showing me her photograph
Displayed a picture of his significant other

And all the feelings I thought were gone
Emotions I believed had vanished

Came rushing back to me at once
Were suddenly felt again

Tried to smile and hide the way I felt
Attempted to conceal my emotions

But I was thinking to myself
Internally pondered my feelings

(Truth is) I never got over you
The fact is I still have feelings for you

(Truth is) Wish I was standing in her shoes
Would like to be in the other person's place

(Truth is) And when it's all said and done
In the end, the conclusion is

Guess I'm still I love with you
Still have an affection for you

(Truth is) I never should have let you go
Regret letting you go

(Truth is) And it's killing me 'cause now I know
Distressed because I am now aware

We reminisce on the way things used to be
Recalled past times of when things were different

Shared a couple laughs, and some memories
Shared some laughter and remembered the past

Talked about the things that changed
Discussed things that are different now

Some for good and some for bad
Some things changed for the better or worse

Then he said good-bye and he paid for lunch
Departed and paid for the meal

Promised that we'd always keep in touch
Committed to staying in contact

Grabbed my bags and grabbed my thoughts,
Took my belongings and thoughts with me

Walked away and that was that
Left the situation and concluded it

Now the truth is it hurts but I that the faults mine
In reality, the pain is my responsibility

'Cause I let him go
Because I walked away from the situation

Tried to get over it but it's messing with my mind
Attempted to move on, but still bothered by it

(Because I know)
Because I am aware

(Truth is) When it's all said and done
In summary

I just gotta be honest, I guess,
I need to be truthful

I-I guess, I'm still in love, in love, in love
I am still in love with you
