True Love
Eyes Of Fire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's coming. Can you feel her? She's warming and growing.
Listen to her and you'll feel her. Her hand caresses my
life into a warm and blissful world.
I feel her cold steel in my arms. Fall into the same routine.
Over and over, there's no escape from this trap.
Tried and failed once-again. Wrap myself around her steel hand.

This time I know. Tomorrow will fade away. This time I know.
Failure will end today. It's love inside of her.
Her steel is kissing, inviting, and welcoming. Please don't fail me today.




Push your steel through my flesh. Show us your power to save.
Please don't fail me today.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Eyes Of Fire's song 'True Love' express a complex and conflicting sense of emotions. The song begins with the introduction of a female character, who is described as warming and growing. The singer seems to be excited and anticipative of her arrival. However, the next line "listen to her and you'll feel her" introduces a sense of fear and uncertainty. The female character seems to hold some sort of power, and being in her presence is both blissful and dangerous.


The third line "her hand caresses my life into a warm and blissful world" creates a vivid image of the female character's touch being soothing and calming. But the following line "I feel her cold steel in my arms" contrasts it by adding elements of fear and danger to this sensation. The contrasting imagery of warmth and coldness highlights the ambiguity of the relationship between the singer and the female character.


In the final lines of the first verse, the singer talks about falling into the same routine, indicating a sense of repetition and languish. The trap of this routine seems inescapable, and they have failed to do so previously. In the second verse, the singer speaks about love being inside her and her steel's ability to save them, hinting at a possible act of violence. The lyrics then close by asking her not to fail them, a possible reference to the female character's power.
