Lyrics:

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

So true

Funny how it seems

Always in time, but never in line for dreams

Head over heels when toe to toe

This is the sound of my soul

This is the sound

I bought a ticket to the world

But now I've come back again

Why do I find it hard to write the next line?

Oh, I want the truth to be said

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

I know this much is true

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

I know this much is true

With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue

Dissolve the nerves that have just begun

Listening to Marvin (All night long)

This is the sound of my soul

This is the sound

Always slipping from my hands

Sand's a time of its own

Take your seaside arms and write the next line

Oh, I want the truth to be known

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

I know this much is true

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

I know this much is true

I bought a ticket to the world

But now I've come back again

Why do I find it hard to write the next line?

Oh, I want the truth to be said

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

I know this much is true

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

I know this much is true

This much is true

(This much is a-true-oo)

(This much is a-true-oo-oo)

I know, I know, I know this much is true

(This much is a-true-oo)

(This much is a-true-oo-oo)

(This much is a-true-oo)

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

(This much is a true-oo-oo)

I know this much is true

(This much is a-true-oo)

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

(This much is a true-oo-oo)

Know this much is true

(This much is a-true-oo)

(Ha-ha-ha, ha-ah-hi)

(This much is a-true-oo-oo)

(Know this much is true)

I know, I know, I know this much is true
