How'd this get to be so hard
I should have never ever let it go so far
You've made me lose my focus
With love in such small doses
You keep me alive
You've got me wanting more and more
But a cab is waiting on the other side of your front door
And it's a far away good-bye

Cause so far away I'll ride
Before you wake up
I've gotta wake up

And I don't know if I can take
Your true love for the week-end baby
But it's a hard habit to break
Your true love for the week-end baby

This situation breaks my heart
Cause we can never work things out when we're so far apart
So I'll say your just a friend then love you when the week ends
This isn't right. It isn't right?

And I don't know if I can take
Your true love for the week-end baby
But it's a hard habit to break
Your true love for the week-end baby

I've become surrounded by these thoughts when I'm with you,
And I'm stuck to these moments but can I come
Unglued

And I don't know if I can take
Your true love for the week-end baby
But it's a hard habit to break
Your true love for the week-end baby
Your true lvoe for the week-end

Your true love for the week-end
Your true love for the

The lyrics to Crowned King's song "True Love" depict the struggle of being caught in a love affair that cannot work out due to distance and commitment issues. The singer admits that they should have never let the relationship go so far, as it has made them lose focus. However, they cannot resist the small doses of love they receive from their lover, even though it leaves them wanting more. The chorus emphasizes how difficult it is for the singer to cope with their lover’s true love for only the weekend, and how it has become a hard habit to break.

The second verse reveals that the situation is breaking the singer's heart, as they know that things cannot work out between them due to the distance. However, the singer still loves their lover but can only do so during the weekends, and pretend to be friends during the week. The bridge of the song showcases the singer's dilemma, as they become surrounded by thoughts when they are with their lover and cannot detach themselves from those moments.

Overall, "True Love" is a poignant portrayal of one's internal struggles when caught in a complicated love affair. The singer is caught between their love for their partner and the reality that their relationship cannot work out due to external factors. The song's lyrics highlight how difficult it is to break bad habits, even when we know they are not good for us.

How'd this get to be so hard
I am finding it difficult to deal with this situation

I should have never ever let it go so far
I regret allowing things to progress as far as they did

You've made me lose my focus
Your presence has distracted me from my goals and priorities

With love in such small doses
Our relationship is not very substantial or meaningful

You keep me alive
Your affection and attention give me a sense of vitality and purpose

You've got me wanting more and more
I am growing increasingly attached to you

But a cab is waiting on the other side of your front door
Our time together is limited and must come to an end soon

And it's a far away good-bye
Our goodbye will be long and painful

Cause so far away I'll ride
I will go far away to avoid the pain of saying goodbye

Before you wake up
I need to leave before you are aware of my departure

I've gotta wake up
I need to accept the reality of our situation

And I don't know if I can take
I am uncertain if I can handle

This isn't right. It isn't right?
I am questioning the morality of our arrangement

Being with you makes me constantly think about our situation

And I'm stuck to these moments but can I come
I am attached to our time together but I know I must detach myself

Unglued
Set free from the emotional bonds of our relationship

Your fleeting affection for me on the weekends

Your true love for the week-end
Your fleeting affection for me on the weekends

Your true love for the week-end baby
Your fleeting affection for me on the weekends
