The Sole Truth

You know I need you baby
Yeah, you know I do
Feel like you’ve been left alone
And there’s nothing here for you
I know how long you’ve been waiting
It’s closing time once again
If he don’t even come around to rescue you, what then?
But who am I to talk?
Cause my guitar’s my only friend
And if you’d like I’ll drive you home
Pour you a drink and we’ll pretend
But you and I are both married
Bought that big house and car
Remember living on easy street
Instead of being where we are
And trying to face the sole truth

You can’t escape the sole truth
And if you just believe me, that’s all that’s left to do
There’s nothing more that I can do
Than face the sole truth

Say this guy is lying every time it rains
Every drop of rain that falls, you just feel your pain
It’s time you stopped all the crying
It’s time we bury the past
I know that you can do better than me
And maybe that’s why I hurt

Well lately I’ve been thinking
Maybe I’m too young
Remember keep on going baby
There’s just one thing I can’t run from
You’re still bringing me here, baby
To this place we call home
To face our failures all by myself
At least we won’t be alone

There’s the sole truth
Can’t erase the sole truth
If you just believe me, that’s all that’s left to do
Nothing more that I can do
Face the sole truth

I don’t want to fall in love again
If you got to know the truth
Then I don’t want to fall in love tonight
Cause I couldn’t bear to lose
Now the sun is coming up
Why don’t we shut this damn place down
Tomorrow we can laugh this off
I’ve had my share of whiskey here to drown
As you walk to your car there’s nothing more I can do

Face to face with the sole truth
Can’t escape the sole truth
You can’t erase the sole truth
Can’t escape the sole truth
