True Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
There I was, so free and lonely
Innocent of all true love
Is it any wonder, darling
That I don't understand true love?

What did Dr. Dog say about "True Love"?
Toby [Leaman] wrote that one, and I was privy to many versions of it along the way. I feel like he always had the lyrics. I never heard it until he had completed the lyrics, but I know he wrote it pretty fast. There was a couple lines that he came up with in the studio. He’ll do that more than I eve...
