Nelly Furtado - Cold Hard Truth Lyrics






It's been a long time coming, coming, coming
Feeling your presence hovering, hovering, hovering
Time that I finally said something, something, something
You're not gonna take this one lying down

But the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
And the cold hard truth is I've been waiting, and waiting
And as I fly away, don't cry your life away
'Cause you and I were meant, we were meant to be alone, alone, alone
We were meant to be alone, alone, laying low

It's been a long time honey, honey, honey
You shouldn't laugh, it's not funny, funny, funny
After I'm done I'll feel lovely, lovely, lovely
Although I feel naked, sudden, suddenly

And as I fly away, don't cry your life away
'Cause you and I were meant, we were meant to be alone, alone, alone
We were meant to be alone

But the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
And the cold hard truth is I've waited too long
And the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
And the cold hard truth is I've waited forever

And as I fly away, don't cry your life away
'Cause you and I were meant, we were meant...

And the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
And the cold hard truth is I've waited forever
The cold hard truth is I can make it without you
And the cold hard truth is, we were meant to be alone

We were meant to be alone, alone laying low
We were meant to be alone, alone, alone
We were meant to be alone, alone, laying low

    Love it

  44. D.... B....

    wtf did she do to her career? 2006 propelled her to being the biggest star that year and she did nothing with it a 6 year break from English speaking album and she makes a comeback on her own label? talk about shooting your own career in the head. what a shame.

    D.... B....

    I would agree Dan. She had some amazing stuff back then. Just lost it I guess. She brought back a lot of memories for me in 2006 and 7. Music is always evolving I get it, but there are bands and musicians that never lose their way. Iron Maiden has proven that after 30 plus years. Still the same sound but they have incredible at refining it with the times. Nelly was incredible

    D.... B....

    She had a big identity crisis after the huge success she had with 'Loose', bordering on depression. She just wanted to find herself and her creative 'roots' again, so she took a big break from making music. She said she wanted to put the art first and wasn't interested in having big hits anymore. She made the album to restore herself and finding her own creative identity again. She said she considers this to be her goodbye album and she has retired from the music business altogether. Sad to see her go, but glad she made it out okay and is ready for a new chapter in her life. (:

    D.... B....

    Wout Vl when did she say this was her goodbye album? She said she wanted to make a collaboration album next, but I mean she’s pregnant again and is gone off social media so it would make sense if she’s retiring

    Cold Hard Truth
    Nelly Furtado
    Produced By John Congleton
    Album The Ride

    Lyrics:

    It's been a long time coming, coming, coming
    Feeling your presence hovering, hovering, hovering
    Time that I finally say something, something, something
    You're not gonna take this one lying down

    [Chorus]
    But the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
    And the cold hard truth is I've been waiting, I'm waiting
    And as I fly away, don't cry your life away
    'Cause you and I were meant, we were meant to be alone, alone, alone
    We were meant to be alone, alone, laying low

    [Verse 2]
    It's been a long time honey, honey, honey
    You shouldn't laugh, it's not funny, funny, funny
    After I'm done I feel lovely, lovely, lovely
    Although I feel naked, sudden, sudden, -ly

    [Chorus]
    And as I fly away, don't cry your life away
    'Cause you and I were meant, we were meant to be alone, alone, alone
    We were meant to be alone

    [Bridge]
    But the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
    And the cold hard truth is I've waited too long
    And the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
    And the cold hard truth is I've waited forever

    [Chorus]
    And as I fly away, don't cry your life away
    'Cause you and I were meant, we were meant
    Yeah the cold hard truth is I can make it without you
    And the cold hard truth is I've waited forever
    The cold hard truth is I can make it without you
    And the cold hard truth is, we were meant to be alone
    We were meant to be alone, alone laying low
    We were meant to be alone, alone, alone
    We were meant to be alone, alone, laying low

  75. R.... O....

    Best album of 2017

  76. C.... ....

    THIS SONG IS... THE ONE THAT MADE ME FEEL ALIVE WHEN I FIRST LISTEN ON JANUARY 27TH... SINCERELY IT WAS THE WONG THAT I WANTED TO HEAR THE MOST...
