Once You've Heard the Truth

It was just like every other morning

The sun was shining

It was storming

They had words over breakfast

And he said something reckless

Just a solitary slip of the tonge

Another woman's name and it was done

Once you've heard the truth

Stared it in the face

Once you've got the proof

There ain't no hiding place

It's like thunder crashing down

Or a freight train running through you

No, you won't forget the sound

Once you've heard the truth

She threw her wedding ring

And it rolled across the floor

She didn't say a thing

But he heard that slamming door

Once you've heard the truth

Stared it in the face

Once you've got the proof

There ain't no hiding place

It's like thunder crashing down

Or a freight train running through you

Oh, you won't forget the sound

Once you've heard the truth

No, you won't forget the sound

Once you've heard the truth

It was just like every other morning

The sun was shining

It was storming
