If it’s true what they say If my love is gone for good They can take this heart away They can take this flesh and blood Take my mouth that kissed her mouth Take my tongue that sung her praise Take my arms that used to reach out In the dark to where she lay If it’s true what they say I’ll be on my way If it’s true what they say If there’s nothing to be done If there’s no part to be played If there’s no song to be sung Take this voice, take these hands I can’t use them anyway Take this music and the memory Of the muse from which it came If it’s true what they say I’ll be on my way We can all be on our way If it’s true what they say
