"I Know The Truth" lyrics

Sherie Rene Scott Lyrics

"I Know The Truth"
(from "Aida (Original Broadway Cast Recording)" soundtrack)

[Amneris:]
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
I closed my eyes to so much for so long
And I no longer can

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

Why do I want him still?
Why when there's nothing there?
How to go on with the rest of my life
To pretend I don't care

This should've been my time
It's over, it never began
I closed my eyes to so much for so long
And I no longer can

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

Too late
