True Love Lyrics
"Folly is no comfort at the end of the day."
True Love
Album: Loving Me
Lover’s Rock / Pop-Funk Soul Ballad
Intro
Oh, true love…
You better hold it close.
True love…
You never know until it goes.
Verse 1
We’re all guilty sometimes,
hurting the hearts that care,
the ones who take time out their day
just to make sure we’re still there.
They call to hear our voice,
we say, “Not today.”
Sometimes we give them silence
and still they choose to stay.
The one who prays in secret,
carries worries we don’t see,
lets us lash out in the storm
when the wrong one is really we.
Pre-Chorus
And love don’t keep a record
of every debt we owe.
But when you take it all for granted,
one day love may let you know.
Chorus
True love, true love,
you can’t buy it with diamonds or gold.
True love, true love,
it’s the hand that won’t let go.
If someone truly loves you,
respect is the least you can give.
Appreciate them while they’re breathing,
while the blessing still lives.
True love, true love,
don’t waste it on pride.
Be wise, choose love today,
before it walks out your life.
Verse 2
It’s the one who has your back
when you forget they exist.
The one you keep neglecting,
but still they don’t resist.
The one who knows your weakness,
and still believes you’ll rise.
The one who sees your shadows,
but keeps faith in your light.
Love is such a gift,
it cannot be earned.
Cannot be purchased,
cannot be returned.
And when it’s real, it’s rare,
few hearts love that way.
So don’t be foolish with forever
chasing temporary praise.
Pre-Chorus 2
True love is selective,
it chooses who it claims.
Sometimes we are chosen,
but we’re careless with the flame.
Living life so selfishly,
blind to what we had,
then crying over love we lost
when lonely hurts too bad.
Chorus
True love, true love,
you can’t buy it with diamonds or gold.
True love, true love,
it’s the hand that won’t let go.
If someone truly loves you,
respect is the least you can give.
Appreciate them while they’re breathing,
while the blessing still lives.
True love, true love,
don’t waste it on pride.
Be wise, choose love today,
before it walks out your life.
Bridge
No matter what love costs,
losing it costs twice.
A cold and empty pillow,
a lonely midnight price.
Love is forgiving,
love is living unselfishly.
It’s the only way to be happy,
the only way to be free.
So call them while you can,
hold them while they’re near.
Don’t wait until the absence
makes the message clear.
Dance Break / Vamp
Choose love today,
don’t let it slip away.
Choose love today,
don’t let pride have the final say.
Respect the heart that loves you.
Protect the one that prays.
Treasure the one that sees you
and still decides to stay.
Final Chorus
True love, true love,
you can’t buy it with diamonds or gold.
True love, true love,
it’s the hand that won’t let go.
If someone truly loves you,
respect is the least you can give.
Appreciate them while they’re breathing,
while the blessing still lives.
True love, true love,
don’t waste it on pride.
Be wise, choose love today,
before it walks out your life.
Outro
Folly is no comfort
at the end of the day.
So be wise, choose love,
choose love today.
True love…
true love…
don’t let it fade away.
