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.

Hold me, baby be near,
You told me that you´d be sincere.
Every day of the year´s like playin´ Russian roulette,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.

I was lyin´ 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.

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,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.

I was lyin´ 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.

You belong to me, baby, without any doubt,
Don´t forsake me, baby, don´t sell me out.
Don´t keep me knockin´ about from Mexico to Tibet,
True love, true love, true love tends to forget.
