lyrics

IT'S TRUE by K. Dennis

I'm sitting here thinking
How to put the words in just the right way
Avoiding stock phrases
Like "love walked in, and saved the day!"

But it's true
I'd be lost without you
It's true
I'd be lost without you

Saw some little kids playing
And I felt that old hurt, and I wanted to cry
Then I saw your face smiling
Sayin' "Yes it's tough and I'm by your side"

Well it's true
I'd be lost without you
It's true
I'd be lost without you

After years in the dark, the sun's breaking through
You light up my life like a bolt from the blue
It's so easy to stoop to cliche
But I can't say "I love you" in near enough ways

I'm sitting here thinking
How to arrange the words in just the right way
Give weight to their meaning
But actions speak louder than a million words a day

Well it's true
I'd be lost without you
It's true
I'd be lost without you
