Lyrics

12. True Love 3:59
music and lyrics by Ernest Troost


She wraps her robe around her tight
Watchin’ TV late at night
Searchin’ for true love

Someone’s lost in the Hebrides
Tossed upon those restless seas
Searchin’ for true love

chorus
A love that knows and a love that learns
A love that’s tender and a love that burns
She will find her way, she will find her way
She will find her way to love

A lover’s curse haunts this place
A shadow flickers ‘cross her face
Searchin’ for true love

The moon finds her through the pane
And shines its light on what remains
Searchin’ for true love

chorus
A love that lingers and a love that flows
A love that’s secret and a love that shows
She will find her way, she will find her way
She will find her way to love

bridge
There’s no guide books to guide her
There’s no signs where to sail
There’s no compass to point her
There’s no markers on the trail

She holds her heart up to the light
While lovers swoon in black and white
Searchin’ for true love

And though the truth may not be fair
She never tires of looking there
Searchin’ for true love

Chorus
A love that’s measured and a love unbound
A love that’s fragile and a love that’s sound
She will find her way, she will find her way
She will find her way to love
