The Truth Before My Eyes

Going through life think about...
How hard it would be... without you
Teling myself that you were the perfect one
People around me say otherwise
Now I'm sitting on my porch think out loud
If you really love me like you say yo do...

Feeling the breeze
Blow gently gently on my face
I turn and look into the wind
Think that my answer lies in it
Now I understand...

Just the thought of you with some other guy
Makes me want to break down and cry
But I'm stronger than that
I'm not as weak as I used to be
I will smile but I'm not lying to myself
And that hurts even more

Looking at the stars
I now understand
Even though there are... many
They're lonely
These stars represent...
Everything about me
Now I see everything... clearly

Now I understant...
Now I can let go...
Even it hurts though...

Feeling the breeze
Blow gently gently on my face
I turn and look into the wind
Think that my answer lies in it
Now I understand...
Looking at the stars
I now understand
Even though there are... many
They're lonely
These stars represent...
Everything about me
Now I see everything... clearly
