"The Truth" lyrics
Kygo & Valerie Broussard Lyrics
"The Truth"
I'm having thoughts again
"Hey, are we more than friends?"
Been trying to say those words for days
'Cause I've been noticing
That when I look at you
You turn your head and look away
Been dancing 'round the feeling in the dark
Can't get it out, why can't you tell me now
Oh, I've been up all night wondering why you lied
When your heart's saying more than you do
I feel it every time that I look in your eyes
Your heart ain't what I always knew
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
Those things we coulda said
On loop inside my head
It's with me everywhere I go
Might be your mistake
Well that's a risk I'll take
If I don't ask, I'll never know
Been dancing 'round the feeling in the dark
Can't get it out, why can't you tell me now
I've been up all night wondering why you lied
When your heart's saying more than you do
I feel it every time that I look in your eyes
Your heart ain't what I always knew
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth
And that's the truth

"The Truth" is the sixth single from Kygo's third studio album, "Golden Hour". The single was released on the 22nd of May 2020.
Speaking on Instagram with
Valerie Broussard on the 16th of May 2020, Kygo revealed that the inspiration for this song had come from his mother's life and her two very different relationships: with his father and his step-father. He said about his attitude,
"...if I could picture the perfect song to tell my mom, like, 'Don't give up on love,' like, 'Don't stop trying to find love of your life because I know that you want it.' [...] And of course I tried to paint the verses a little bit more universal to fit, you know, a young relationship [...] but that chorus is definitely about her."
