I Know The Truth

From Aida
 Amneris:
 How did I come to this?
 How did I slip and fall?
 How did I throw half a lifetime away
 Without any thought at all?
 This should have been my time
 It's over, it never began
 I closed my eyes to so much for so long
 and I no longer can
 I try to blame it on fortune
 Some kind of shift in a star
 But I know the truth and it haunts me
 it's flown just a little too far
 I know the truth and it mocks me
 I know the truth and it shocks me
 It's flown just a little too far.
 Why do I want him still?
 Why when there's nothing there?
 How to go on with the rest of my life
 To pretend I don't care
 This should've been my time
 It's over-It never began
 I closed my eyes to so much for so long
 and I no longer can
 I try to blame it on fortune
 Some kind of twist in my fate
 But I know the truth and it haunts me
 I learned it a little too late
 Oh I know the trth and it mocks me
 I know the truth and it shocks me
 I learned it a little too late
 Too late
