Can You Be True?
Elvis Costello Song Lyrics





Can you be true?
Can this possibly be real?
I knew quite suddenly
Do you sense how I feel?
I long to hear you whisper my name
'Til you tell me
My Darling, you may be my man.

There will be days when you must go from my sight
There may be nights when clouds deny us starlight
Only time will tell us
I hope that it speaks gently if it isn't meant to be
Then again
By then we might not be listening so attentively

I will be there
If the days bring torments and trials
To close the distances only measured in miles
I long to hold you all through the night
And to tell you
My Darling, you make everything seem right
And then I'll hear you calling in my name
And I'll answer
My Darling, I may be your man
