Lyrics
- Two words were spoken
You said goodbye
One heart was broken
Left here to die
I’ve kissed your picture
Time after time
Oh, how I miss you
Old pal of mine
Chorus
I loved you, it just had to be
And I tried to be true blue
I lost you and I’ll take the blame
Tho’ I played the game true blue
My beautiful love dreams have ended
They all depended so much on you
Remember should there come a time
You’ll still find that I’m true blue
- Short hours of gladness
Long days of pain
Moments of sunshine
Ages of rain
Dreaming and waiting
Lonely and blue
These are my treasures
Mem’ries of you
