Everybody said i'd leave you They gave us six months to a year Said our love would just fall pray to The jukebox, women and the beer They wanna get those rumours flyin' They're watchin' for a rendez-vous But if they ever say i'm cheatin' They'll be lyin' The truth is lyin' next to you (chorus) Thruth is I'm gonna be here for a long long time I'll stay forever or 'til you say goodbye Don't need a neon moon to make my night shine
And if you need some lovin' proof Just reach out The truth is lyin' next to you Over phone lines and back fences We're the talk of this whole town They just shake their heads in wonder They can't believe i'm still around They can search the backstreet barrooms To see if i'm with someone new But if they ever say they saw me They'll be lyin' The thruth is lyin' next to you (repeat chorus twice)
