Truly
I-Roy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I love you, I do

I love you truly, truly, true

Truly, true

If the world should end today
I could say at least I've had my day with you

Truly, true

Truly baby, I love you

Truly, truly, truly, true

And for some, the world may end

But for us it will begin again, and again

Truly, true

I love you, I do

I love you truly, truly, true





Truly, true
