No. 6 - Ballad - Tee-To
| Tee-To: | How often in this careless life A word but lightly spoken, By magic of a love sincere, Becomes a blessed token, The formal message that I send to you Would thrill your very soul if you but knew That ev'ry word I write is more than true, I am, I am yours truly, I am, I am yours truly, And will be ever more. The meaning of those simple words I never knew before. Time cannot change my deep devotion, Steadfast my heart shall be, I am, I am yours truly, My soul belongs to thee! The words we speak in idle jest Our secret thoughts are screening, Exchanging vows of deep concern In terms that have no meaning. And yet at times the clasp of friendly hand Appeals far more than duty's loud command. And so I pray that she may understand, I am, I am hers truly. I am, I am yours truly, And will be ever more. The meaning of those simple words I never knew before. Time cannot change my deep devotion, Steadfast my heart shall be, I am, I am yours truly, My soul belongs to thee! |
