James Blunt - The Truth lyrics

[James Blunt - The Truth lyrics]

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)

And I'm not tryna find somebody
'Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh, ooh)
Yeah, the real thing is gold
How I wish I could hold you

I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my worst so
I'd 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)

I don't lie anymore in a heap on the floor
'Cause I'm clear on the road I must take
(Ooh, ooh)

And I'm not tryna find somebody
'Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh, ooh)
I'm getting closer
Stumbling over everything I need
To say to you

I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my worst so
I'd 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

I will search with every fiber
If you're out there, leave a light on
'Cause the distance is getting wider
And I know I've gotta find ya

I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my worst so
I'd 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
