Stronger Than the Truth

I never dreamed of wantin' more Than a small town, simple life A little money in our pockets You're my husband I'm your wife But then I fell in icy water Standing in the grocery line I overheard my name and yours And one I did not recognize Now everything I thought I knew Is walking out the door There's a bottle on the table Tellin' me the only thing I know for sure Is there's not a sound, a sound as loud as silence There's not a blade sharper than a lie There's not a low, lower than being the last one to know You got a brand new start with someone new And there's no whiskey stronger than the truth You never think it'd be your story When you're pulling the wool off your eyes You know, you think you know somebody Then you don't and you don't know why Havin' me another won't make the clock rewind But I'm drinking every drop knowing What I'm looking for I'll never find There's not a sound, a sound as loud as silence There's not a blade sharper than a lie There's not a low lower than being the last one to know Oh, you got a brand new start with someone new And there's no whiskey stronger than the truth The only thing I can do Is pour a glass and pretend That this pain's gonna end There's not a sound, a sound as loud as silence There's not a blade sharper than a lie There's not a low lower than being the last one to know Oh, you got a brand new start with someone new And there's no whiskey stronger than the truth No, there's no whiskey stronger than the truth
