True Love
Ahmir Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1: (BIG MIKE)
I was thinking bout the way that we began
I started out just to be your friend
As time went on my feelings began to grow
Because you blessed me with your touch and your embrace
Now when I think of all you've done for me
Baby your love it rains down
All over my world and
When I think of all the things you've done for me
Your love rains down
All over my land

Chorus:
You promised me your love
I promised you my time
We can take this love to heaven
If you just put your hand in mine
Girl my life never began
Until you showed me how to trust
At times I was afraid
But still you showed me
True love
True love, baby

Verse 2: (BIG MIKE)
I promise I, I promise I wont change
Babe I'm gonna be, I gotta be the same man you met
But that won't work unless you're here with me baby
Cause you complete, you complete the man I am

Chorus

Bridge: (SING-SING)
I appreciate your gift to me, I do
I'm the man I am today because of you
I am not the man I used to be
Was blind, but now these eyes can see
This love will keep us strong throughout the years

WOW! I'm not sure where they would put this in the movie but it sounds great! They don’t usually go for this genre of music but I’m sure they’ll consider you guys because of your amazing talent! I've loved the twilight series from the start and I think that this could be for Bella and Edward or Bella and Jacob! Beautiful sound and beautifully written! You guys never disappoint me! :) <3 love you guys!
