"True Love" lyrics - DR. DOG

DR. DOG
"True Love"

I can't understand this city
And I don't understand true love
And I've been under false impressions
Of even where I thought I was
Heavy are the open-hearted
And heavy is the fate of love
Yeah here I go from town to town
Just getting by on old true love

[Chorus:]
Lovesick in some backwoods bayou
Lovesick in town
Gonna need to call the CDC
'Cause it's going around

Arm in arm in armageddon
Conjuring a tidal wave
Standing on the cliffs and laughing
And running down the fire escape
Step ahead of rolling thunder
An army of returning doves
Heavy are the open-hearted
And heavy is the fate of love

[Chorus:]
Lovesick in some backwoods bayou
Lovesick in town
Gonna need to call the CDC
'Cause it's going around

They say that love is blind
But you look good to me
And there's a reason that I'm coming over
And it ain't up to me

True love
Is it any wonder, darling
That I don't understand true love?
Arm in arm in armageddon
Conjuring our own true love
Step ahead of rolling thunder
An army of our own true love
And heavy are the open-hearted
And heavy is our own true love

There I was, so free and lonely
Innocent of all true love
Is it any wonder, darling
That I don't understand true love?
