Raye Collin - Man of My Word lyrics

I'm a man of my word

I mean what I say

My pledge is my bond

Well

that's just my way

When you've made a promise

To someone who's gone

Well

that's when forever

Seems a little too long

I'm a man of my word

And

I made you a vow

I swore that I'd love you

And I can't change that now

They tell me I'm free

To find someone new

I just don't have the heart

'Cause I gave mine to you

I said my love

Would last for all time

And

no one

Would take your place

Well if that promise

Was the last sound you heard

Well you know I kept it

I'm a man of my word

I'm a

man of my word

And it's cost me so dear

'Cause those words are a prison

Without

you here

And I'll go to my grave

With this torch held high

Bust just

once I wish

I had told you a lie.

Yes I'll always love you

I'm

a man of my word
