[Intro]
~#**************#~
Doo, doo, doo, doo-ooh-hoo
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Subject

~#**************#~

[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I lied, I said you were the truth
~#**************#~
You took it as the truth
~#**************#~
And now I got you, but I dont want you like that
~#**************#~
There only lives one love
~#**************#~
And of that you cant compare to
~#**************#~
And thats the bare-naked truth
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
You knew and I knew
~#**************#~
But you didnt want to hear
~#**************#~
What I didnt want to tell you
~#**************#~
Now weve got hard times
~#**************#~
And now theres no love at home
~#**************#~
When separate we feel so alone
~#**************#~
But we cant stand to be
~#**************#~
Together to talk about it
~#**************#~
We had time, to I-N-C
~#**************#~
Our thoughts instead of our bodies
~#**************#~
This cant be love
~#**************#~
What if we produced a shorty
~#**************#~
Would hard times would still be visual
~#**************#~
Within this love, within our love
~#**************#~
This cant be love
~#**************#~
And thats the bare-naked
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
You took it as the truth
~#**************#~
And now I got you, but I dont want you like that
~#**************#~
There only lives one love (There only lives one love)
~#**************#~
And of that you cant compare to
~#**************#~
And thats the bare-naked truth
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
I said you were the truth (Oh)
~#**************#~
You took it as the truth
~#**************#~
We cant stand to be
~#**************#~
Together, to talk about it
~#**************#~
But we cant stand to be
~#**************#~
Apart long enough to heal this thing, baby
~#**************#~
You and I started off good
~#**************#~
Findin time to spend time
~#**************#~
I said what you wanted to hear
~#**************#~
Now you need to know that
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I lied, I said you were the truth
~#**************#~
You took it as the truth
~#**************#~
And now I got you, but I dont want you like that
~#**************#~
There only lives one love
~#**************#~
And of that you cant compare to
~#**************#~
And thats the bare-naked truth
~#**************#~
And you need to take that as a truth
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
If our words were truly fact
~#**************#~
We probably still wouldnt have love
~#**************#~
But we would love what we had
~#**************#~
But we dont, reality is we lied
~#**************#~
Now you and I must say goodbye
~#**************#~
Cant you see the bare-naked start to speak
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Im a young man (Yeah), the world is mine
~#**************#~
I shouldve been (Ooh), straight with you from the beginnin (Mm-hmm)
~#**************#~
You probably wasnt even lookin for a man (Mmm, oh)
~#**************#~
This time has been no doubt interestin (Ooh)
~#**************#~
But now that (Mmm) we broke up, Im thinkin this mightve been love
~#**************#~
This coulda been love, damn, what the f—, its just my luck
~#**************#~
