If the one you think is true Ever turns his back on you You've still got a place in my heart If the years should make you cry Don't go on and live a lie You've still got a place in my heart If I'm a fool to pray That you come back someday Then I'll know a million fools that love has made that way And if every road you take Proves you made a mistake Then you've still got a place in my heart Then I'll know only fools that love has made that way And if every road you take Proves you've made a mistake Oh you've still got a place in my heart You've still got a place in my heart
