Gonna wipe these teardrops from my eyes There ain't no need for me to cry There's some things I think I need to say I'll think about you every day Every day while you're away And I'll be true to you, honey, while you're gone If you're not gone too long But if you're gone for a year or two Baby, you know that's too had to be true I might find somebody else 'Cause I'll get lonesome by myself I'll be the truest love you've known For a while, I'll stay at home And I'll be true to you, honey, while you're gone If you're not gone too long Tomorrow you'll be gone, I know So love me now before you go We don't know what's farther down the road There may be a detour sign The upset plans of yours and mine I'll be true to you, honey, while you're gone If you're not gone too long But if you're gone for a year or two Baby, you know that's too had to be true I might find somebody else 'Cause I'll get lonesome by myself I'll be the truest love you've known For a while, I'll stay at home And I'll be true to you, honey, while you're gone If you're not gone too long If you're gone for a year or two Baby, you know that's too had to be true I might find somebody else 'Cause I'll get lonesome by myself I'll be the truest love you've known For a while, I'll stay at home And I'll be true to you, honey, while you're gone If you're not gone too long Oh, if you're not gone too long
