He made my loving heart hollow
With blue eyes and sandy hair
Where he went i would follow.
Holding a loving hand
That turned on me in the end.
Oh, how i wish i could've kept him as a friend

True love,
Isn't always the truest, is?
His blue eyes
Made my world the bluest.
He was a little wild,
A little reckless.
Sometimes i really miss
That boy from memphis.

He had the most adorable grin.
And i was convinced we'd be
Lifelong friends.
He gave me the answers i was searching for.
So afraid to hurt my feelings,
But in the end he hurt me so much more.

True love,
Isn't always the truest, is?
His blue eyes
Made my world the bluest.
He was a little wild,
A little reckless.
Sometimes i really miss
That boy from memphis.

I can still see the look in his eyes
From the way he was staring at me.
I knew it was goodbye.
I wanted to cry,
But i kept it inside.
I wanted to ask him why...

True love,
Isn't always the truest, is?
His blue eyes
Made my world the bluest.
And didn't we have some good times?
Why was i so, so blind?
He was a little wild,
A little reckless.
Sometimes i really miss
That boy from memphis.

So i'm gonna keep my distance,
Cause i've learned the hard way once before.
It's a lesson learned,
But it left me with a burn the size of texas.
That boy from memphis, tennessee.
