With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high
I will be leaving dear
I'm going out West and down to California
Or somewhere to a land that's near
I will walk through the weather with my head held high
I will be wondering when
With my flame and my fire and my thoughts in the clouds
Do you think we'll ever meet again
Can you see
If she's alright
Many times I've prayed
In the darkness of my night
True love of mine
Once a true love of mine
Once a true love of mine
Once a true love of mine
With my hopes and my worries and my dreams piled high
I will remember you
I'm going to travel as a nobody dark glasses on
And think of you so true
When the train's in the station and its whistle is a blowin'
It's fare thee well my love
I will write a lonely letter from the land of the sun
And see you in the stars above
Can you see
If she's alright
Many times I've prayed
In the darkness of my night
True love of mine
Once a true love of mine
Once a true love of mine
Once a true love of mine
