THE LAST TIME I THOUGHT ABOUT LEAVING
WAS THE LAST TIME I MADE HER CRY
I TALKED TO MYSELF OUT OF BELIEVING 
THAT TRUE TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES

THE FIRST TIME I THOUGHT OF RETURNING 
WAS JUST TEN LONESOME MILES OUT OF TOWN 
BUT MY FOOLISH PRIDE KEPT THESE WHEELS A TURNING
AND THERE WAS NOTHING ON THIS EARTH GONNA SHUT ME DOWN

CHORUS: 
IF I HAD ONE DROP OF WATER
FOR EACH AND EVERY TEAR I HAVE CRIED
I'D SAIL BACK TO HER ON AN OCEAN OF SORROW
TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES

AND YOUR PRIDE WILL FORSAKE YOU BY AND BY
THE LONESOMEST NIGHT SURELY PASSESS
BUT THAT OL' TRUE TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES

IF I HAD ONE DROP OF WATER
FOR EACH AND EVERY TEAR I HAVE CRIED
I'D SAIL BACK TO HER ON AN OCEAN OF SORROW
TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES

IF I HAD ONE DROP OF WATER
FOR EACH AND EVERY TEAR I HAVE CRIED
I'D SAIL BACK TO HER ON AN OCEAN OF SORROW
TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES

WELL I'D SAIL BACK TO HER ON AN OCEAN OF SORROW 
TRUE TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES
