The Truth Is
Liam Horne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh god, how'd it come to this
Guess we all got our weaknesses
Started out everything was right
All we got now is sleepless nights
Demons on the microphone
Tell you lies, make you feel alone
Get you high 'til you're falling down
Find me there when you hit the ground

Ohhh...Baby, I'ma say a prayer
Ohhh...That you always feel me near

Cause the truth is
Yeah, the truth is
That I love you
Yes, I love you
And the truth is
Yeah, the truth is
That I love you
Yes, I love you
Ohhh...
Yeah, the truth is that I love you

Come on, baby dry your eyes
I'm not going anywhere tonight
Promise not to let you go
I'ma stay through the sun and snow
Wish I could take away all your pain
And every fear tryina call your name
Wipe off every trace of doubt
Make you believe I can't live without you
Ohhh...whispers creeping through your mind
Ohhh...but don't be listening to those lies

Ain't nobody nowhere fresher than my chick
Go ahead and try but remember the truth is




Ain't nobody nowhere fresher than my chick
Fresher than my chick, fresher than my chick
