Donna Summer True Love Survives lyrics

On big alley stands a lady, waiting for awhile
Acting out an untold story like a wounded child
But the mystery of the circumstance won't hide
She believes true love survives

Waiting for her long, lost lover returning from the war
And though I know she knew the truth, she also knew much more
And the answer that she gave to all of us
Whispered low saying, "True love survives, true love survives"

Is she dreaming? Does she know a secret I can't see?
Maybe there's a trace of truth in all that she believes
For one day I took a look deep down inside
A voice cried, saying, "True love's alive, true love survives"

Only love will last forever, true love will survive
Only love will last forever, true love will survive


True is love is never-ending
It's giving all and not pretending
It's holding on although your heart feels dead

A quarter of a century of years have gone by
Still the dream of this peculiar lady's kept alive
So I'm holding tight to one who I desired
A burning fire, sayin', "True love survives, true love survives"

Only love will last forever, true love survives
Only love will last forever, true love survives
Only love will last forever, true love survives
