The Rumours - Lyrics by Olivia Newton John


Lyrics
This is the last time I look around the 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 crushing to the ground.
There was a tide turning somewhere deep inside us
When all these years together seem lost behind my tears.
Ohthere were good timesbut 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 rumouryou can't argue with your heart
Once the rumour spreadsonce the rumour spreads
Once the rumour spreadsthe truth is just a thing of the past.
As the rain falls to listen to the radio
And try to memorize the words to "
Georgia On My Mind".
But we're no old songwe never stood the test of time
The lies inside the rumour left us far behind.
But still tried to love you
I still tried to care...
And when we say good-bybe sure and look me in the eye
And know the real secret was the thing we didn't have to hide.I still tried to love you
I still tried to care...
Once the rumour spreadsonce the rumour spreads
The truth is just a thing ofit's just a thing of
The truth is just a thing of the past.
