When Your True Love Is gone

Give yourself to the night
Cry your tears tomorrow
Grit your teeth and pour the wine
Take it with your sorrow
'Cause it's true, yes it's true
And it's all you can do
When your true love has told you goodbye
Yes, it's true, yes it's true
And it's all you can do
When your true love has told you goodbye
When your true love is gone
Without telling you why
Accept this invitation
From a hopeless, soulless stranger
Another harmless situation
Spelling clear and present danger
'Cause it's true, yes it's true
And it's all you can do
When your true love has told you goodbye
Yes, it's true, yes it's true
And it's all you can do
When your true love has told you goodbye
When your true love is gone
Without telling you why
Shouting at your last friend
Crying in the road
Another season came and went
And now it's getting cold
'Cause it's true, yes it's true
And it's all you can do
When your true love has told you goodbye
Yes, it's true, yes it's true
And it's all you can do
When your true love has told you goodbye
When your true love is gone
Without telling you why
We don't understand each other's pain anymore
The naked wall that we're up against
You dress it with your tears and with your laughter
All your woman things and your pride
Bye-bye, my baby, goodbye
Prone to endless introspection
Prone to easy living
Move on further in the dance
Accept what's freely given
All men lose their sparkle
Maybe your special friend had none
Undress him now, the sorry ass
Your false anointed one
