True To Your Heart
98 Degrees Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby, I knew at once that
You were meant for me
Deep in my soul I know
That I'm your destiny
Though you're unsure
Why fight the tide
Don't think so much
Let your heart decide

Baby, I see your future
And it's tied to mine
I look in your eyes and see
You searching for a sign
But you'll never fall
Till you let go
Don't be so scared
Of what you don't know

True to you heart
You must be true
To your heart
That's when the
Heavens will part
And baby, shower you
With my love
Open your eyes
Your heart can tell
You no lies
And when you're true
To your heart
I know it's gonna lead
You straight to me
(Got to be true
To your heart)

Someone you know is on
Your side, can set you free
I can do that for you if
You believe in me
Why second-guess
What feels so right
Just trust your heart
And you'll see the light

True to you heart
You must be true
To your heart
That's when the
Heavens will part
And baby, shower you
With my love
Open your eyes
Your heart can tell
You no lies
And when you're true
To your heart
I know it's gonna lead
You straight to me

(Ya know it's true)
Your heart knows
What's good for you
(Good for you)
Let your heart show
You the way
(Ya know it's true)
It'll see you through
(True
To your heart)

Girl, my heart is driving
Me to where you are
Well, you can take both hands off
The wheel and still get far
Be swept away
Enjoy the ride
You won't get lost
With your heart to guide you

True to you heart
You must be true
To your heart
That's when the
Heavens will part
And baby, shower you
With my love
Open your eyes
Your heart can tell you no lies
And when you're true
To your heart
I know it's gonna lead
You straight to me

True to you heart
You must be true
To your heart
That's when the
Heavens will part
And baby, shower you
With my love
Open your eyes
Your heart will tell you no lies
And when it's true
To your heart
I know it's gonna lead
You straight to me
(Got to be true
To your heart)

When things are getting' crazy
And you don't know
Where to start
Keep on believin', baby
Just be true to your heart
When all the world
Around you
It seems to fall apart
Keep on believin', baby
Just be true to your heart
(Got to be true
To your heart)





(Got to be true
To your heart)

This may sound cringey but man, that moment when Stevie appears out of the sparkles, sitting in that big red chair and with that wise smile on his face like the Great Stone Dragon himself… favorite moment of the whole video. Gave me chills in a weird way lol

@69AllyCat420

The fact they included Stevie Wonder in this song, made it ICONIC!

@laurasohn8332

The older generation upstaged the newer one

@ddthewolf

​@@laurasohn8332 98 Degrees was actually really honored to perform with him

@dediamkaming

It was meant to be a Stevie Wonder-esque song, that's why the opening riff sound like it came from Superstition.

@hkrueger07

Now that was awesome! 😊😊😊😊

@PhoenixSkyProduction

Man... Stevie Wonder's voice alone is an instrument... and that harmonica is insane! Love it!

@MCAP887

nobody can play a harmonica better than that man.

@MrGabeanator

ik

@Ethrawl

for some reason, this song popped into my head on repeat and wouldn't stop. haven't heard this song in probably over a decade and it's still as good as i remember it being.
