(Verse 1: Truth Hurts) He breaks, me down, he builds, me up He fills, my cup, I like, it rough We fuss, we brawl, we rise, we fall He comes, in late, but it's, ok He do, I do, he knows, the rules He takes care of home, though he's not alone I'm on, his knee, he keeps, me clean And gives, me things, he makes, me scream (Chorus: Truth Hurts) He's so contagious, he turns my pages He's got me anxious, he's what I waited for He keeps me guessin, spontaneous He's so persuasive, and I'm his lady (Verse 2: Truth Hurts) Oh!
