Thanks Joe buy yourself a double, gotta soul to bare, I'm in a spot o' trouble
Bring the bottle with my name forget about the glass
Through the music and the noise I hear a voice from the past

It's a story that you've heard before about a boy and girl about a need for more
How he promised to return but I never went back
Now through the music and the noise I hear a voice from the past

It's a cruel, cruel world of my own makin'
I had myself a girl whose heart I set to breakin'
Tie me to the mast this ship is gonna crash on a voice from the past

I hear her footsteps comin' fast behind me
O don't let her see me o don't let her find me no
Bring the chalice to my lips gonna make this vision pass
I been falling for so long have I hit bottom at last

I wanna tell you somethin' Joe
Without a word of a lie
Drunk or sober it's all the same
True love will never die

So sit in front of me and watch the door
And tell me when I can stop starin' at the floor
How long's eternity Joe how long does it last
'Cause through the music and the noise I hear a voice from the past

True love will never die
