I'm Still in Love with You
T-Bone Walker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sweetheart if you should stray a million miles away
I'll always be in love with you.
Although you find more fish in someone else's dish
I'll always be in love with you.

I can't do any more, I tried so hard to please
But let me thank you for you lovely memories
I wish you happiness, as for me sweetheart I guess




I'll always be in love with you.
