I Know The Truth (from "Aida" by Elton John & Tim Rise) ("M")
How have I come to this? How did I slip and fall? How did I throw half a lifetime away Without any thought at all?
This should've been my time It's over - it never began I closed my eyes to so much for so long And I no longer can.
I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of shift in a star But I know the truth and it haunts me It's flown just a little too far. I know the truth and it mocks me I know the truth and it shocks me It's flown just a little too far.
Why do I want hin still? Why when there's nothing there? How to go on with the rest of my life To pretend I don't care. This should have been my time It's over - it never began I closed my eyes to so much for so long And I no longer can.
I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of twist in my fate But I know the truth and it haunts me I learned it a little too late.
Oh, I know the truth and it mocks me I know the truth and it shocks me I learned it a little too late Too Late.
