I'll Be True To You - The Oak Ridge Boys

They met upon a blue moon

And they parted on a cloudy day

They were so in love and out of school

But he was goin' so far, far away

She said: «I'll be true to you

«Even though you don’t want me to

«And I’ll be blue for you

«Even though you’ve asked me not to.»

Well the year’s drifted by them, as we all know they can

He found other women, but she refused other men

But as fate would have it, they met again

She was on a down-hill slide, he was just slidin' in

As he looked into her eyes that night, he never realized

The only real love in his life was passin' by

When he turned and left her there, his words: «Goodbye»

He heard her calling out to him, and as he walked, she cried:

«I've been true to you

«Seems like speakin' to me is the least that you could do

«And I’ve been blue for you

«Even though you’ve asked me not to.»

She’d been drinkin way too hard one night

She’d been drinkin way too long

Alone and pale in a cheap hotel, she died there in the dawn

Kneelin' by the grave, oh so late and oh so wrong

He longed to hold her close again, cryin' on and on

He cried: «I'll be true to you

«After all that I have put you through

«And I’ll be blue for you

«Though you never even asked me to.»
