Just Us Lillys - You Can't Handle the Truth

You Can’t Handle the Truth
(Georgia Lilly)

Each night I get home another minute after ten,
You tell me that you’re worried and you wonder where I’ve been –
But you can’t handle the truth.

Each night I walk for miles wondering if we’re through,
Then I stop and I tell myself I’m still in love with you –
‘Cause I can’t handle the truth.

BRIDGE
Have we gotten old, has our love gone cold,
Too cold to bear?
Have we lost the route, has the fire gone out,
Are we pretending we still care?

Each morning we wake up another minute before dawn,
Thinking about that fire and wondering where it’s gone –
‘Cause we can’t handle the truth.
‘Cause we can’t handle the truth.

No, we can’t handle the truth.
