Mark Mallman True Love lyrics

I looked over the balcony
rising from the sea
sunshine coming overhead
the sky lit up like a cigarette
I didn't even go to sleep
when it was coming over me

I thought I saw you on the street again
you were walking with a new friend
all my life there's been one thing
true love
true love

so I drive down to the county line
I watch as ladies pull their skirts so high
hips are swinging in that heavenly strut
hustlin' down the corners of the you-know-what

I'm picking up vibrations
I can feel it in my blood
I think I died of dehydration
when I was waiting on the flood
true love

true love
true love

they call me Mr. Serious
but I got so many dreams
cocktail criminals and parking lot dames
I dressed arrived like jesse james
straddle in the saddle
baby's got a six gun rattle
I keep it underneath my coat
cause death rattles in my throat

I've got just one red rose
everybody knows
true love
true love
true love
true love
true love
true love
