| [00:04] |
If it's true what they say |
| [00:07] |
If my love is gone for good |
| [00:11] |
They can take this heart away |
| [00:15] |
They can take this flesh and blood |
| [00:19] |
Take my mouth that kissed her mouth |
| [00:23] |
Take my tongue that sung her praise |
| [00:27] |
Take my arms that used to reach out |
| [00:31] |
In the dark to where she lay |
| [00:34] |
If it's true what they say |
| [00:38] |
I'll be on my way |
| [00:46] |
If it's true what they say |
| [00:49] |
If there's nothing to be done |
| [00:54] |
If there's no part to be played |
| [00:57] |
If there's no song to be sung |
| [01:02] |
Take this voice, take these hands |
| [01:06] |
I can't use them anyway |
| [01:10] |
Take this music and the memory |
| [01:13] |
Of the muse from which it came |
| [01:17] |
If it's true what they say |
| [01:21] |
I'll be on my way |
| [01:26] |
We can all be on our way |
| [01:29] |
If it's true what they say |
| [01:34] |
But the ones who tell the lies |
| [01:37] |
Are the solemnest to swear |
| [01:42] |
And the ones who load the dice |
| [01:46] |
Always say the toss is fair |
| [01:50] |
And the ones who deal the cards |
| [01:52] |
Deal the cards... |
| [01:54] |
Are the ones who take the tricks |
| [01:58] |
With their hands over their hearts |
| [02:02] |
While we play the games they fix |
| [02:06] |
And the ones who speak the words |
| [02:08] |
Speak the words... |
| [02:10] |
Always say it is the last |
| [02:14] |
And no answer will be heard |
| [02:18] |
To the question no one asks |
| [02:23] |
So I ask you as a brother |
| [02:27] |
And I ask you as a friend |
| [02:31] |
And I ask you as a lover |
| [02:35] |
And I ask you once again, |
| [02:38] |
Is it true what they say? |
