Hope it be my mind don't slip Sailing on a sinking ship Into the sunset in d**h Dark night on a long highway Good ol' lights in the houses say Somebody's staying up late Oh - I'll be true to you Oh yeah, you know I will I'll be true to you forever or until I go home If I ever treated you mean You know that it was only because I was sorry I couldn't have you for my own I guess it's sort of funny now Sort of like a plastic putty Imagination all twisted with the facts Oh - I'll be true to you Oh yeah, you know I will I'll be true to you forever or until I go home I have a deep respect for you Usually reserved for the dead Hangin' on every word that you said So nice to have a friend like you Even though you're not around You're closer to me than most But kids say the darndest things Hallow hopes and golden dreams Leave everything empty in the end Oh - I'll be true to you Oh yeah, you know I will I'll be true to you forever or until I go home Hope it be my mind don't slip Sailing on a sinking ship Into the sunset in d**h Gee, it's great to be alive Takes the skin right off my hide To think I'll have to give it all up some day Oh - but I'll be true to you Oh yeah, you know I will I'll be true to you forever or until I go home
