Man of My Word Lyrics

I'm a man of my word. . . I mean what I say
My pledge is my bond. . . 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
horus 1
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
ridge
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
Instrumental
horus 2
I'm a man of my word. . . And its cost me so dear
These words are a prison. . . With-out you here
And I??ll go to my grave. . . This torch held high
But just once I wish. . . I??d told you a lie
ridge
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
Yes, I'll always love you. . . I'm a man of my word
