The Truth

All those years feeling displaced
The light on my face reflecting sadness
Too much weight around my shoulders
Pulled me closer to the edge of madness
I struggled hard to resist temptation
My albatross? The next sensation
Now I'm learning how to live with that past

When I'm awake I'm plagued with worry
Keeps me honest so I don't deceive myself
It's not a cakewalk with anyone
You can't just toss pennies in the well
To jump right in when the water's cold
Takes a leap of faith?????I've never been that bold
Hope I haven't hit the ground running too fast

I'll follow you if you'll ease my mind
All I need is proof
You're the cavalry
My hero for saving my life
Girl you're the truth

There has to be room for conversation
You've got to find some common ground
It's all about sharing your secrets
With someone you know who'll be around
Don't look too far beyond the sunset
Just be sure to give what you get
That's the only way to make your love last

I found the answer in your eyes
When all I needed was proof
You're the memory
You're the future of all ages
With you in my life I found the truth
