How Can I Be Sure Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

You only want to break my heart once more 

With promises that you'll keep every vow 

You told me that you loved me so, so many times before 

So how can I be sure, you love me now 

Sometimes I dream I'm in your arms embrace 

And though how happy you once made me there 

But every time I trust in you, another takes my place 

So how can I be sure, you really care 

You count me in then count me out again 

You play with me just like a toy and yet 

You make my heart believe in you, then leave that same old pain 

So how can I be sure, you won't forget 

I'm only sure I'll never love anew 

Your memory is in my heart to stay 

And foolish me, I'll still be here with open arms for you 

For how can I be sure, you'll stay away
