True Love Travels on a Gravel Road
Journey of Unyielding Love: True Love Travels on a Gravel Road
Lyrics
How many girls
Questioning the choices made by girls in preferring simplicity (cotton dress) over luxury (satins and lace).
Would choose a cotton-dress world
Continuation of the inquiry into the choices related to a modest lifestyle.
When they could have satins and lace?
Rhetorical question emphasizing the contrast between choosing simplicity and opulence.
To stand by her man
Expressing commitment to standing by a partner through all circumstances.
Through good times and bad
Highlighting the endurance of love during both good and bad times.
And still keep a smile on her face?
Emphasizing the resilience of maintaining a positive attitude despite challenges.
How many hearts would feel the winter's wind blow
Exploring the capacity of hearts to endure hardships without losing warmth.
And still not turn cold?
Continuation of the theme of enduring challenges without succumbing to bitterness.
True love travels on a gravel road
Introduction of the central idea: True love is compared to a journey on a rough path.
Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger
Describing love as unfamiliar and hearts being at risk, contrasting with a comfortable life.
On smooth streets paved with gold
Highlighting the dangers of love on smooth, luxurious paths.
But true love travels on a gravel road
Reiteration of the central idea that true love thrives on challenges.
Down through the years
Reflecting on the passage of time and the hardships experienced in a relationship.
We've had hard times and tears
Acknowledging difficulties and tears as contributing to the growth of love.
But it only helps our love grow
Emphasizing the positive impact of challenges on the strength of love.
And we'll stay together
Commitment to staying together regardless of the intensity of challenges.
No matter how strong the wind blows
Expressing the unwavering nature of love even in the face of adversity.
Not once have I seen your blue eyes fill with envy
Noticing the partner's lack of jealousy and steadfast loyalty.
And stray from the one that you hold
Highlighting the partner's faithfulness and loyalty in the relationship.
True love travels on a gravel road
Reiteration of the idea that true love thrives on challenges and difficulties.
Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger
Restating the risks of love on smooth, easy paths.
On smooth streets paved with gold
Emphasizing the central theme that true love endures on a challenging journey.
But true love travels on a gravel road...
Reiterating the idea that genuine love withstands difficulties and challenges.
