If The Shoe Fits

(album: Love Of The Common People - 1967)

My friends all say that you're deceiving me
And things are going on that I don't see
I pay them no mind I love you so
And if you're guilty then I just don't want to know.

But if the shoe fits then wear it
If your mind hurts then bear it
It's your conscience to live with every day every night
If you find it hard sleeping
If you just lie there weeping
If the truth hurts then the shoe fits just right.

[Instrumental]

If you do wrong then it's your bill to pay
It's you there in that mirror every day
I love you and I plan to from now on
I just can't believe you do your daddy wrong.

But if the shoe fits then wear it
If your mind hurts then bear it
It's your conscience to live with every day every night
If you find it hard sleeping
If you just lie there weeping
If the truth hurts then the shoe fits just right.

If the truth hurts then the shoe fits just right...
