Like a gunshot from miles away ♪ She's moving in Like a rainstorm without the clouds ♪ She falls on you Like a phone call to warn the truth ♪ It never rings
It's the truth before the lies ♪ It's the way she doesn't try ♪ It's the wink before the sly ♪ In Philadelphia, in Philadelphia ♪ They met after work one day ♪ She laughed with him
They drove off their separate ways ♪ Then met for drinks ♪ When he got home The silent guilt was deafening ♪ It's the truth before the lies ♪ It's the way she doesn't try ♪ It's the wink before the sly ♪ In Philadelphia, in Philadelphia ♪ She thought that love was gonna fight ♪ She thought that love was gonna take her home ♪ She thought that love was gonna save her ♪ But love just never showed ♪ She felt that love was always watching ♪ Oh, we learned that love was supposed to wait ♪ But sometimes it's the feelings ♪ That are standing in the air ♪ He slips off his worn out suit ♪ And tries to rest
She's a million miles away ♪ Across the bed She rolls over, puts her hand ♪ Across his chest
It's the truth before the lies ♪ It's the way she doesn't try ♪ It's the wink before the sly ♪ In Philadelphia, in Philadelphia ♪ In Philadelphia
