lyrics

Most nights, I lie awake
My mind keeps running and won’t shut down
As I feel you next to me
There are so many things I’m thinking about

The bitter truth, the bitter truth
Is I’ve never loved anyone more than you
The bitter truth, the bitter truth
Is I should show it better than I do

We always take for granted
Whatever it is that means the most
No matter how hard I push you
You’ll pull even harder to keep me close

The bitter truth, the bitter truth
Is I’ve never loved anyone more than you
The bitter truth, the bitter truth
Is I should show it better than I do

Sometimes you live long enough
To be the story you’re trying to tell
At this point, the plot escapes me
Unless it’s that you saved me from myself

The bitter truth, the bitter truth
Is I’ve never loved anyone more than you
The bitter truth, the bitter truth
Is I should show it better than I do

To The Roof Of The Sky (1998)
by Bill Mallonee & Vigilantes of Love

A huge record for me. It helped me find a language to articulate what I wanted to say with my music. Bill is one of the best songwriters out there. You'll never be disappointed. Brent Stewart
