There was a time when you were mine and my heart knew no pain
|
But since that time sweetheart I find there's been an awful change
|
The love I knew has proved untrue and now we're far apart
|
No matter how you treat me now you'll still be in my heart
|
I understand your many plans I brought you wealth and pride
|
With all your gold when love is cold you'll be dis-satisfied
|
You were untrue because you knew I love you from the start
|
Though you'll find bliss in another's kiss you'll still be in my heart
|

|
I can't erase the lovely face no matter how I try
|
When friends we knew just mention you I hang my head and cry
|
You turned me down because you found you play the leadin' part
|
Those lonely years I'll spend in tears you'll still be in my heart
|
My one request when I lay to rest the future has in store
|
On that sad day beneath the clay to sleep forever more
|
Should you be there in deep despair when burning teardrops start
|
Please don't forget I love you yet you'll still be in my heart
|

You'll Still Be In My Heart
