Be sure it's true when you say "I love you" |
|
It's a sin to tell a lie |
|
Millions of heart have been broken |
|
Just because these words were spoken |
|
I love you, yes I do, I love you |
|
If you break my heart I'll die |
|
So be sure it's true when you say "I love you" |
|
It's a sin to tell a lie |
|
MONOLOGUE: Now, ya better be sure that it's true when you say "I LUV ya." |
|
Honey chile, don'tcha know it's a sin to tell a lie? Whole LOTTA hearts have been |
