i know the truth
(Duet with Elton John)  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 Facing a world, for once not on my side I simply turned and ran  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  I know the truth and it mocks me I know the truth and it shocks me I learned it a little too late  People have faith in me I think I once did too I promise whoever has a hold on our lives I'll see the bad times through  This should have been my time It's over, it never began Facing a world, for once not on my side I simply turned and ran  I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of shift in the stars 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  I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of twist in my fate But I know the truth and it haunts me.
