Man of My Word

I'm a man of my word

I mean what I say

My pledge is my bond

Well ，that's just my way

When you've made a promise

To someone who's gone

Well ，that's when forever

Seems a little too long

I'm a man of my word

And I made you a vow

I swore that I'd love you

And I can't change that now

They tell me I'm free

To find someone new

I just don't have the heart

'Cause I gave mine to you

I said my love would last for all time

And no one would take your place

Well,if that promise was the last sound you heard

Well ,you know I kept it

I'm a man of my word

I'm a man of my word

And it's cost me so dear

'Cause those words are a prison

without you here

And I'll go to my grave

With this torch held high

But just once ,I wish

I had told you a lie.

I said my love would last for all time

And no one would take your place

Well,if that promise

Was the last sound you heard

Well ,you know I kept it

I'm a man of my word

Yes I'll always love you

I'm a man of my word
