Song language: English
If It's True |
If it’s true what they say |
If my love is gone for good |
They can take this heart away |
They can take this flesh and blood |
Take my mouth that kissed her mouth |
Take my tongue that sung her praise |
Take my arms that used to reach out |
In the dark where she lay |
If it’s true what they say |
I’ll be on my way |
If it’s true what they say |
If there’s nothing to be done |
If there’s no part to be played |
If there’s no song to be sung |
Take this voice, take these hands |
I can’t use them anyway |
Take this music and the memory |
Of the muse from which it came |
If it’s true what they say |
I’ll be on my way |
We can all be on our way |
If it’s true what they say |
But the ones who tell the lies |
Are the solemnest to swear |
And the ones who load the dice |
Always say the toss is fair |
And the ones who deal the cards |
Are the ones who take the tricks |
With their hands over their hearts |
While we play the game they fix |
And the ones who speak the words |
Always say it is the last |
And no answer will be heard |
To the question no one asks |
So I ask you as a brother |
And I ask you as a friend |
And I ask you as a lover |
And I ask you once again |
Is it true what they say? |
