I was always
Baby I was always
Well almost always true to you

Met a pretty mademoiselle
Her papa owned a small hotel
Oh, I was almost always true to you

I resisted though my arm was twisted
I was almost always true to you

I stayed away from drink and wine
Thought about you all the time
Oh, I was almost always true to you

Kept refusing
Don't jump to conclusions
I was almost always true to you

I would never grab like this
I would never steal a kiss
Oh, I was almost always true to you

I was almost always true to you
