True Love Way
Discovering True Love's Path: A Journey of Freedom and Happiness
Lyrics
Warning, like a substitute
There's a cautionary element, a substitute for something dangerous or problematic.
I've been working awful hard for you
The speaker has been putting in a significant effort for the person being addressed.
But you don't say, you just hold your breath
Despite the effort, there's a lack of verbal acknowledgment; instead, the person holds their breath, possibly suggesting tension or uncertainty.
So I can't touch what I haven't yet
The speaker cannot connect with what they haven't experienced yet, indicating a barrier or distance.
She's a cold one and it hurts me so
The person is described as cold, causing emotional pain to the speaker.
It's a dark path and a heck of a goal
Life with this person is portrayed as a challenging journey with ambitious goals.
If she could feel me like she did before
If the person could reciprocate the speaker's feelings as they did in the past, it would be better.
We'd be so free
The potential for freedom if the relationship were better.
Happy alone
A desire for happiness in solitude.
Sharing a smile
Sharing joy through a smile.
So far from home
Feeling far from home despite physical proximity.
Push in and I pull it away
A push-pull dynamic in the relationship.
Its the hard part but the true love way
Emphasizing the difficulty but authenticity of true love.
Till you want it like a wanted man
Desire for the person's attention akin to being wanted.
With your smart mouth and your killer hand
Reference to the person's intelligence and potentially assertive nature.
We can both share all that I have made
A willingness to share everything the speaker has achieved.
For a young man its a heck of a wage
Acknowledging the challenges of being a young man, possibly in the context of providing for the relationship.
And I feel crazy when I see your face
The person's presence makes the speaker feel crazy.
'Cause we'd be so free
Reiteration of the potential for freedom in a better relationship.
Happy alone
Desire for happiness even in solitude.
Sharing a smile
Sharing joy through a smile despite being far from home.
So far from home
(Empty line)
And we would laugh
Imagining laughter, a positive emotion, even in solitude.
Laugh till we cry
Laughing to the point of tears, indicating deep emotional connection.
Making a song
Creating a song together, a metaphor for shared experiences.
Making me lie
The creation of a song involves some level of deception or hiding true feelings.
And people say our babies are walking this town
Mentions of people discussing the speaker's babies, possibly symbolizing the consequences or outcomes of the relationship.
And people say our babies are walking this town
-And people say our babies just wondering around
-And people say our babies are walking a...
-And we'd be so free
Reiteration of the potential for freedom in a better relationship.
Happy alone

Sharing a smile
Sharing joy through a smile despite being far from home.
So far from home

And we would laugh

Laugh till we cry

Making up songs
