If Youre Not Gone Too Long

I’m gonna wipe these teardrops from my eyes

There ain’t no use for me to cry

And there’s some things I think I need to say

I’ll think about you every day

Every day while you’re away

I’ll be true to you honey while you’re gone

If you’re not gone too long

But if you’re gone for a year or two

It may be too long for me to be true

I might find somebody else cause I get lonesome by myself

I’ll be the truest love you’ve known

And for a while I’ll stay at home

I’ll be true to you honey while you’re gone

If you’re not gone too long

So love me now before you go

We don’t know what’s farther down the road

There may be a detour sign

To upset plans of yours and mine

I’ll be true to you honey while you’re gone

If you’re not gone too long

But if you’re gone for a year or two

It may be too long for me to be true

I might find somebody else cause I get lonesome by myself

I’ll be the truest love you’ve known

And for a while I’ll stay at home

I’ll be true to you honey while you’re gone

If you’re not gone too long
