If You Truly Love Me Songtext
von Dom Flemons

I tore down the wall that showed me the way
To a dream that I once knew
As I ride through the ruins of my old home place
I have finally made it on back to you
My hands are tired from knocking on your door
Though I can see you clearly through the open windowpane

Tell me now, little one, as I stand at your door
Tell me forever that you love me no more
For I′ve come back again to take my picture off the wall
For if you truly love me, let my heart go free

Did you know that I gave away two weeks' pay
Just to be here next to you?
Did you ever consider that one look in your eyes
Could have repaid every debt you were due?
There′s a storm in the distance, can't you see the clouds?
I have a long journey and it looks like rain


Tell me now, little one, as I stand at your door
Tell me forever that you love me no more
For I've come back again, but be rest assured
That if you truly love me, let my heart go free

It′s a twisted mile from the skyline to the sea
And I ask you to let my heart go free

Lullaby, lullaby, a target on my back
A mirror of all you survey
You made me mourn your name, but now my money′s my own
My decision, it was thoughtfully weighed
A garden once stood in the place where we stand
So I will leave you with this final refrain

Tell me now, little one, as I stand at your door
Tell me forever that you love me no more
For I've come back again, get your eyes up off the floor
′Cause if you truly love me, let my heart go free
I've come back again, get your eyes up off the floor
′Cause I don't give a damn if you don′t love me anymore
