It seemed the better way
When first I heard him speak
But now it's much too late
To turn the other cheek
Chorus:
Sounded like the truth
Seemed the better way
Sounded like the truth
But it's not the truth today
I wonder what it was
I wonder what it meant
At first he touched on love
But then he touched on death
Chorus:
Sounded like the truth
Seemed the better way
Sounded like the truth
But it's not the truth today
I better hold my tongue
I better take my place
Lift this glass of blood
Try to say the grace
It seemed the better way
When first I heard him speak
But now it's much too late
To turn the other cheek
Chorus:
Sounded like the truth
Seemed the better way
Sounded like the truth
But it's not the truth today
I better hold my tongue
I better take my place
Lift this glass of blood
Try to say the grace
