You'll Still Be In My Heart Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

There was a time when you were mine and my heart knew no pain 

But since that time sweetheart I find there's been an awful change 

The love I knew has proved untrue and now we're far apart 

No matter how you treat me now you'll still be in my heart 

I understand your many plans I brought you wealth and pride 

With all your gold when love is cold you'll be dis-satisfied 

You were untrue because you knew I love you from the start 

Though you'll find bliss in another's kiss you'll still be in my heart 

[ guitar ] 

I can't erase the lovely face no matter how I try 

When friends we knew just mention you I hang my head and cry 

You turned me down because you found you play the leadin' part 

Those lonely years I'll spend in tears you'll still be in my heart 

My one request when I lay to rest the future has in store 

On that sad day beneath the clay to sleep forever more 

Should you be there in deep despair when burning teardrops start 

Please don't forget I love you yet you'll still be in my heart
