Verse 1:

Like a gunshot from miles away

She's moving in
Like a rainstorm with out the clouds
She falls on you

Like a phone call to worn the truth
It never rings


Chorus:

It's the truth before the lies

It's the way she doesn't try
It's the wink before the sly
In Philadelphia

In Philadelphia

Verse 2:


They met after work one day
She laughed with him

They drove off their separate ways
Then met for drinks
When he got home the silent guilt was deafening


Chorus:


It's the truth before the lies
It's the way she doesn't try
It's the wink before the sly

In Philadelphia




In Philadelphia


Bridge:

She thought that love was gonna fight

She thought that love was gonna take her home
She thought that love was gonna save her
But love just never showed

She felt that love was always watching
Oh we learned that love was supposed to wait
But sometimes it's the feelings

That are standing in the air

He slips off his worn out suit and tries to rest

She's a million miles away across the bed
She rolls over puts her hand across his chest


Chorus:

It's the truth before the lies

It's the way she doesn't try
It's the wink before the sly
In Philadelphia

In Philadelphia
In Philadelphia
