Truth (#1) Lyrics - Patty Griffin

You don't like the sound of the truth 

Coming from my mouth 

You say that I like the proof 

Baby that might be so 

I might get to the end of my life 

Find out everyone was lying 

Look like you are not afraid anymore 

I say that I would rather die trying 

Oh swing me way down south 

Sing me something brave from your mouth 

And I'll bring you pearls of water on my hips 

And the love in my lips 

All the love in my lips 

This time when I swung the bat 

And I found myself laying flat 

I wondered 

What a way to spend a dime 

What a way to use the time 

Aint it baby? 

Now I looked at our reflections 

In the window walking past 

And I saw a stranger 

I think we're just so scared all the time 

That's the main reason why 

The world is so dangerous 

Oh swing me waw down south 

Sing me something brave from your mouth 

And I'll bring you pearls of water on my hips 

And the love in my lips 

All the love in my lips 

You don't like the sound of the truth 

Coming from my mouth 

You say that I like the proof 

Baby that might be so 

Tell what's wrong with having a little faith 

In what you're feelin in your heart 

Why must we be so afraid 

And always so far apart
