Lyrics
You don't know who I am,
But I know all about you,
I've come to talk to you tonight,
About the things I've seen you do.
I've come to set the record straight,
I've come to shine the light on you,
Let me introduce myself,
I am the cold hard truth.
There is a woman we both know,
I think you know the one I mean,
She gave her heart and soul to you,
You gave her only broken dreams.
You say you're not the one to blame,
For all the heartaches she's been through,
I say you're nothin' but a liar,
And I'm the cold hard truth.
All your life that's how it's been,
Looking out for number one,
Taking more than you leave,
Moving on when your done.
With her you could have had it all,
A family and lots of laughs,
If you had any sense at all,
You'd go and beg her to come back.
You think that you're a real man,
But you're nothing but a fool,
The way you run away from love,
The way you try to play it cool.
I gonna say this just one time,
Time is running out on you,
You best remember me my friend,
I am the cold hard truth.
You best remember me my friend,
I am the cold hard truth
