[Intro]
Hey
What?
Listen
[Verse 1]
I've had other guys
I've looked into their eyes
But I never knew love before
'Til you walked through my door
I've had other lips
I've sailed a thousand ships
But no matter where I go
You're the one for me, baby, this I know
[Chorus]
'Cause it's true love
You're the one I'm dreaming of
Your heart fits me like a glove
And I'm gonna be true blue, baby, I love you
[Verse 2]
I've heard all the lines
I've cried, oh, so many times
Those teardrops, they won't fall again
I'm so excited 'cause you're my best friend
So if you should ever doubt
Wonder what love is all about
Just think back and remember, dear
Those words whispered in your ear, I said
[Chorus]
True love
You're the one I'm dreaming of
Your heart fits me like a glove
And I'm gonna be true blue, baby, I love you
'Cause it's true love (This time I know it's true love)
You're the one I'm dreaming of (The one I'm dreaming of)
Your heart fits me like a glove (Heart fits just like a glove)
And I'm gonna be true blue, baby, I love you
[Bridge]
No more sadness, I kiss it goodbye
The sun is bursting right out of the sky
I searched the whole world for someone like you
Don't you know, don't you know that it's
[Refrain]
True love, oh baby, true love, oh baby
True love, oh baby, true love, it's (True love, baby)
True love, oh baby, true love, oh baby
True love, oh baby, true love, it's true
[Verse 3]
So if you should ever doubt
Wonder what love is all about
Just think back and remember, dear
Those words whispered in your ear, I said
[Bridge]
No more sadness, I kiss it goodbye
The sun is bursting right out of the sky
I searched the whole world for someone like you
Don't you know, don't you know that it's
[Chorus]
True love (This time I know it's true love)
You're the one I'm dreaming of (The one I'm dreaming of)
Your heart fits me like a glove (Heart fits just like a glove)
And I'm gonna be true blue, baby, I love you
I love you (This time I know it's true love)
La, la, la-la, la-la-la (The one I'm dreaming of)
La, la, la-la, la-la-la (Heart fits just like a glove)
And I'm gonna be true blue, baby, I love you
[Outro]
'Cause it's (True love, baby) true love, oh baby, true love, oh baby
True love, oh baby, true love, it's (True love, baby)
True love, oh baby, true love, oh baby
True love, oh baby, true love, it's true (True love, baby)
La, la, la-la, la-la-la (True love)
True love, true blue (True love, baby)
