The Rumour lyrics

This is the last time

I'll look across this 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 crashing to the ground

There was a tide turning

Somewhere deep inside us

When all these years together seem lost behind my tears

Oh, there were good times

But in between the dog days

I felt the pain of rumour whisper in my ears

Chorus:

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 rumour

You can't argue with you heart, no

Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads

Once the rumour spreads, the truth is just a thing of the past

As the rain falls

I listen to the radio

And try to memorize the words to "Georgia On My Mind"

But we're no old song, we never stood the test of time

The lies inside the rumour left us far behind

Chorus

And when we say goodbye

Be sure to look me in the eye

And know the real secret

Was the thing we didn't have to hide

Chorus

Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads

The truth is just a thing of, it's just a thing of

The truth is just a thing of the past
