You've Still Got a Place in My Heart
Dean Martin · Country Legends [2005]
If the one you think is true
Ever turns his back on you
You've still got a place in my heart.
If the years should make you cry
Don't go on and live a lie
You've still got a place in my heart.
If I'm a fool to pray
That you come back someday
Then I'll know a million fools
That love has made that way.
And if every road you take
Proves you made a mistake
Babe, you've still got a place in my heart.
--- Instrumental ---
Then I'll know only fools
That love has made that way
And if every road you take
Proves you've made a mistake.
Babe, you've still got a place in my heart.
You've still got a place in my heart...
