The Rumor lyrics

Now when the rumor comes to your town

It grows, it grows, where it started no one knows

Some of your neighbors will invite it right in

Maybe it's a lie, even if it's a sin, they'll repeat the rumor again

Close your eyes, hang down your head

Until a fog blows away, let it blow away

Open up your arms and feel the good

It's a'comin', a brand new day

Big men little men turn into dust

Maybe it was all in fun, didn't mean to ruin no one

Could there be someone among this crowd

Who's been accused had his name so misused and his privacy refused

Close your eyes, hang your head

Until a fog blows away, let it blow away

Open up your arms and feel the good

It's a'comin', a brand new day

Now all you vigilantes want to make a move

Maybe they won't, you know I sure hope they don't

For whether this rumor proves true or false

You can forgive, a'you can regret, but you can never ever forget

Close your eyes, hang down your head

Until a fog blows away

Open up your arms and feel the good

It's a'comin', a brand new day
