True Love Tends to Forget

[Verse 1]

I’m getting weary looking in my baby’s eyes

When she’s near me she’s so hard to recognize

I finally realize there’s no room for regret

True love, true love, true love tends to forget

[Verse 2]

Hold me, baby be near

You told me that you’d be sincere

Every day of the year’s like playing’ Russian roulette

True love, true love, true love tends to forget

[Chorus]

I was lying’ down in the reeds without any oxygen

I saw you in the wilderness among the men

Saw you drift into infinity and come back again

All you got to do is wait and I’ll tell you when

[Verse 3]

You’re a tearjerker, baby, but I’m under your spell

You’re a hard worker, baby, and I know you well

But this weekend in hell is making me sweat

True love, true love, true love tends to forget

[Chorus]

I was lying’ down in the reeds without any oxygen

I saw you in the wilderness among the men

Saw you drift into infinity and come back again

All you got to do is wait and I’ll tell you when

[Verse 4]

You belong to me, baby, without any doubt

Don’t forsake me, baby, don’t sell me out

Don’t keep me knocking’ about from Mexico to Tibet

True love, true love, true love tends to forget
