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? |
