Rumor, The Lyrics

Rumor, The lyrics

This is the last time

I'll look across this table

And try to face a
feeling I don't even recognize

This is a sad hand

That reached
across and touched you

When all we'd built around us came crashing to the
ground



There was a tide turning

Somewhere deep inside us

When all these years together seem lost behind my tears

Oh there were
good times

But in between the dog days

I felt the pain of rumour
whisper in my ears



But I still tried to love you

I still
tried to care

Still tried to hold on with the power of my prayers

But you can't fight the rumour

You can't argue with you heart, no

Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads

Once the rumour
spreads, the truth is just a thing of the past



As the rain
falls

I listen to the radio

And try to memorize the words to
"Georgia On My Mind"

But we're no old song

We never stood the test
of time

The lies inside the rumour left trust so far behind



But I still tried to love you

I still tried to care

Still tried
to hold on with the power of my prayers

But you can't fight the
rumour

You can't argue with you heart, no

Once the rumour spreads,
once the rumour spreads

Once the rumour spreads, the truth is just a
thing of the past



And when we say goodbye

Be sure to look me
in the eye

And know the real secret

Was the things we didn't have to
hide



But I still tried to love you

I still tried to care

Still tried to hold on with the power of my prayers

But you can't fight
the rumour

You can't argue with you heart, no

Once the rumour
spreads, once the rumour spreads

Once the rumour spreads, the truth is
just a thing of the past

Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour
spreads

The truth is just a thing of, it's just a thing of

The
truth is just a thing of the past
