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

And 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
But just once I wish
I had told you a lie

And 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
