| 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 | |
| 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 trust so far behind | |
| 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 | |
| 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 | |
| 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 | |
| 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 |
