Truly Yours [German translation]

("Truly yours", "truly yours"),

how the words made me cry

when the note that you sent

said goodbye.

You were once truly mine

but you found someone new

and those words, "truly yours",

aren't really true.

You could have come and told me

you're his and not mine.

I deserve better than just a short letter

carelessly signed.

"Truly yours", teardrops fell

as I read every part

but those words, "truly yours",

just broke my heart.

You could have come and told me

that you're his and not mine.

I deserve better than just a short letter

carelessly signed.

"Truly yours", teardrops fell

as I read every part

but those words, "truly yours",

just broke my heart.
