The Truth by James Blunt

The Truth
James Blunt
It's a long, (1)____________ road
That I've (2)____________ on my own
Never thought I'd end up in this place (ooh-ooh)
I went fast, I went slow
Then I (3)________ up all hope
'Cause I know, either way, it's the (4)________ (ooh-ooh)
And I'm not tryna find somebody
'Cause no one else but you will do (ooh-ooh)
Yeah, the real (5)__________ is gone
Now I (6)________ I (7)__________ hold you
I wasted all of these (8)________ and nights
Trying to (9)__________ all these empty highs
But I had to go (10)______________ my (11)__________ so I know that I just needed you (oh-oh-oh-oh)
As I look out at the morning sun
There's no (12)____________ (13)________ the things I've done
And out of everything I've lost, now I (14)________ (15)________ I just needed you (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that's the truth (oh-oh-oh-oh)
I don't lie anymore
In a heap on the floor
'Cause I'm clear on the road I must take

And I'm not tryna find somebody
'Cause no one else but you will do (Ooh, ooh)
I'm getting closer, (16)__________________ over (17)____________________ I need to say to you

[Chorus]
I wasted all of these days and nights
Trying to chase all these empty highs
But I had to go to my (18)__________ so I'd know that I (19)________ (20)____________ you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
As I look out at the (21)______________ sun
There's no escape from the things I've done
And out of (22)____________________ I've lost, now I (23)________ that I (24)________ needed you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that's the truth
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And darling, that's the truth
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
I (25)________ search with every fiber
If you're out there, leave a light on
'Cause the distance is getting wider
And I know I've (26)__________ (27)________ ya
