When the Truth Is... Hamilton Leithauser & Rostam

[Verse 1: Hamilton Leithauser]
I was drowning out the night with the last of the wine
And my story began to unwind
So I gathered all the shards of a glass from the bar
And I left from 17th Street for St. Marks

[Chorus: Hamilton Leithauser]
Won't you listen to me now?
I was trying all the time
Maybe half the time I got you right
But not tonight

[Verse 2: Hamilton Leithauser]
Oh I'll always be lonely
And you’ll never hear the truth
Yeah the truth is there's some distance, but you're listening
And I keep talking my way back into your heart

[Chorus: Hamilton Leithauser]
Your mama told you I'd long gave up, baby but
Your mama lied
Half the time I must've got it right
But not tonight

[Verse 3: Hamilton Leithauser]
Oh I'll always be lonely
And you’ll never hear the truth
Yeah I'll always be lonely
And you'll never hear the truth
