hey marvelous truth
what you could do
you set a boy free, you tortured a few
they marvel at you and what you could do to be happy

cause everyone has a secret or two
and there's a new one about me and you
and there's nothing that you can do to take it back now

you read my palm while we were naked
said a man should know his limitations
ahh oooo the marvelous truth

back on your feet with another night through
and you can't believe the things that you'll do this time
your head, it is pounding
down on the street through the market
where cool kids buy rings and corduroy jeans
and there's nothing that you can do to take it back now

on your back are you dreaming
about a life that's full of meaning
ahh oooo the marvelous truth

we got along for an empty while
yeah you eased my mind
but i still belong to a girl back home
and she's on my mind
and we still belong

slumber in june
up half past two
down on the street with my burden of truth
and there's nothing that i can do to take it back now

you read my palm while we were naked
said a man should know his limitations
ahh oooo the marvelous truth
the marvelous truth
the marvelous truth
