Stronger Than The Truth Lyrics

by Reba McEntire

[Verse 1]
I never dreamed of wantin' more
Than a small town, simple life
A little money in our pockets
You're my husband, I'm your wife

[Verse 2]
But then I fell in icy water
Standing in the grocery line
I overheard my name and yours
And one I did not recognize

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now everything I thought I knew is walking out the door
There's a bottle on the table tellin' me the only thing I know for sure

[Chorus]
Is there's not a sound, a sound as loud as silence
There's not a blade sharper than a lie
There's not a low lower than being the last one to know
You got a brand new start with someone new
And there's no whiskey stronger than the truth

[Verse 3]
You never think it'd be your story
When you're pulling the wool off your eyes
You know, you think you know somebody
Then you don't and you don't know why

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Havin' me another won't make the clock rewind
But I'm drinking every drop knowing what I'm looking for I'll never find

[Chorus]
There's not a sound, a sound as loud as silence
There's not a blade sharper than a lie
There's not a low lower than being the last one to know
Oh, you got a brand new start with someone new
And there's no whiskey stronger than the truth

[Bridge]
The only thing I can do
Is pour a glass and pretend
That this pain's gonna end

[Chorus]
There's not a sound, a sound as loud as silence
There's not a blade sharper than a lie
There's not a low lower than being the last one to know
Oh, you got a brand new start with someone new
And there's no whiskey stronger than the truth
No, there's no whiskey stronger than the truth
