Thanks To Rumors
w & m by John D Loudermilk,©1969 Acuff Rose Publ. Inc.
I told you, you were the only
One in the world that I had ever loved
And you believed me
Cause in true love there can be no doubts
But now, thanks to rumors my past is finding me out
I tried to lie to keep you
From being hurt because I knew
If you found out
The truth would just ruin things for you
But now, thanks to rumors I guess I'll be losing you
I knew it would happen, some day, I just knew
You'd find out about me and the whole thing would fall through
But I still love you, yes I love you
Though it's too late, I know I've lost your faith
And when that happens
Nothing else I say will you believe
So thanks to rumors I guess I'll have to leave
So thanks to rumors I guess I'll have to leave
