The Truth About Love

The truth about love comes at 3 A.M.

You wake up, up and you grab a pen

And you say to yourself, I'm gonna figure it out

I'm gonna crack that code, gonna break it, break it down

I'm tired of all these questions, and now it's just annoying 'cause

No one has the answers, so, I guess it's up to me to find

The truth about love, is it comes and it goes

A strange fascination with his lips and toes

Morning breath, bed room eyes on a smiling face

Sheet marks, rug burn, and a sugar glaze

Shock and the awe that can eat you raw

Is this the truth about love? (The truth about love)

I think you just may be perfect

You're the person of my dreams

I never ever, ever, ever been this happy

But now something has changed

And the truth about love is it's all a lie

I thought you were the one, and I hate goodbyes

Oh, you want the truth?

The truth about love is it's nasty and salty

It's the regret in the morning, it's the smelling of armpits

It's wings, and songs, and trees, and birds

It's all the poetry that you ever heard

Terror coup d'etat, life line forget-me-nots

It's the hunt and the kill, the schemes and the plots

The truth about love is it's blood and it's guts

Purebreds and mutts, sandwiches without the crust

It takes your breath, cuts and leaves a scar

But those untouched never got, never got very far

It's rage and it's hate, and a sick twisted fate

And that's the truth about love (The truth about love)

I think you just may be perfect

You're the person of my dreams

I never ever, ever, ever been this happy

But now something has changed

And the truth about love is it's all a lie

I thought you were the one, but I hate goodbyes

Oh, you can lose your breath and

Oh, you can shoot a gun and

Convince you're the only one that's ever felt this way before

It hurts inside the hurt within and

It folds together pocket thin and

It's whispered by the angel's lips and

It can turn you into a son of a bitch, man

The truth, the truth, the truth about love is

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (I think you just may be perfect)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (You're the person of my dreams)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (I never ever, ever, ever been this happy)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (But now something has changed)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (The truth about love is it's all a lie)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (I thought you were the one, and I hate goodbyes)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (I think you just may be perfect)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (You're the person of my dreams)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (I never ever, ever, ever been this happy)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (But now something has changed)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (The truth about love is it's all a lie)

Truth, the truth, the truth about love is (I thought you were the one, and I hate goodbyes)
