Everybody said I'd leave you
They gave us six months to a year
Said our love would just fall prey to
The jukebox, women and the beer

They wanna start those rumours flying
They're watching for a rendez-vous
But if they ever say I'm cheating, they'll be lyin'
The truth is lyin' next to you

Truth is I'm gonna be here for a long long time
I'll stay forever or 'til you say goodbye
Don't need no neon moon to make my night shine
If you need some loving proof
Just reach out
The truth is lyin' next to you

Over phone lines and back fences
We're the talk of this whole town
They just shake their heads in wonder
They can't believe I'm still around

They can search the backstreets bar-rooms
To see if I'm with someone new
But if they ever say they saw me, they'll be lyin'
The truth is lyin' next to you

Truth is I'm gonna be here for a long long time
I'll stay forever or 'til you say goodbye
Don't need no neon moon to make my night shine
If you need some loving proof
Just reach out
The truth is lyin' next to you

Baby, I'm gonna be here for a long long time
I'll stay forever or 'til you say goodbye
Don't need no neon moon to make my night shine
If you need some loving proof
Just reach out
The truth is lyin' next to you
