Eagle Eye Cherry - Conversation lyrics

rate me

Chorus:

Conversation with the child who once believed in you

How does one explain to him what it is you do

He says daddy daddy please tell me it's not true

What all the people are saying....saying about you

There comes a time when one must face the life that you have led

That is a hard thing to do when lies is all that has been said

And the blameless eyes of an innocent youth

Is begging for you to tell the truth

It's such a hard way to learn....hard way to learn

This moment of truth will hurt for life

Don't need to tell you that ain't right

Come now little boy don't you cry

'cause the child in you is still alive

Chorus

There comes a time in this child's life when the boy becomes a man

So many things from his past he now can understand

Like all the times when dad would leave and be gone for so long

And he thought everything was all right

And he thought everything was all right

This moment of truth will hurt for life

Don't need to tell you that ain't right

Come now little boy don't you cry

'cause the child in you is still alive

This moment of truth will hurt for life

Don't need to tell you that ain't right

Come now little boy don't you cry

'cause the child in you is still alive

Such a hard way to learn......(repeat)
