It was just like every other mornin'
The sun was shinin' and it was stormin'
They had words over breakfast
And he said somethin' recklessJust a solitary slip of the tongue
Another woman's name and it was doneOnce you've heard the truth
Stared it in the face
Once you've got the proof
There ain't no hidin' placeIt's like thunder crashin' down
Or a freight train runnin' through you
No, you won't forget the sound
Once you've heard the truthShe threw her wedding ring
And it rolled across the floor
She didn't say a thing
But he heard that slammin' doorOnce you've heard the truth
Stared it in the face
Once you've got the proof
There ain't no hidin' placeIt's like thunder crashin' down
Or a freight train runnin' through you
Oh, you won't forget the sound
Once you've heard the truthNo, you won't forget the sound
Once you've heard the truthIt was just like every other mornin'
The sun was shinin' and it was stormin'
