Heather Myles gets her musical inspiration from a background that is as diverse as the artist herself. Growing up on a ranch in Southern California, Heather was immersed in the sounds of country music radio at a time when legends were being born. The voices of Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, Waylon Jennings, and Hank Williams all played a large part influencing Heather as a songwriter and an outstanding performer. Additionally, it was the sound of her dad's ukulele and grandpa's old Scottish bagpipes that have been responsible for shaping her into the artist she is today.
Heather's family, originally from Scotland, settled in Canada and eventually migrated to Southern California where they operated a ranch specializing in the breeding and training of racehorses. As a child, Heather always thought she would follow in the family business and even considered becoming a jockey. However, an extraordinary talent for music and her powerful voice would soon lead Heather to a much different track.
Now, after four CDs and several years touring the world, playing honky-tonks and opening shows for Charlie Daniels, Merle Haggard, and Waylon Jennings, Heather is poised for stardom and ready to take her place on the main stage of Country and American music.
True Love
Heather Myles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've got women waitin' on you,you're like a revolvin' door.
You live life so cavalier, but time's not on your side.
How much longer will it take until you realize?
Short term lovers under covers,
Well, now that don't mean a thing.
When you find out what you're missin',
Well, I hope it ain't too late.
When your world comes tumblin' down;
I'll be there if you ever need me,
True love won't let you down.
My friends think I'm crazy, they say I'm wastin' my time.
They don't see the magic that you hold in your eyes.
Maybe it's those baby blues that keeps me hypnotized.
I might be a dreamer, but my heart you can't deny:
Short term lovers under covers,
Well, now that don't mean a thing.
When you find out what you're missin',
Well, I hope it ain't too late.
'Cos when you need someone to hold you,
When your world comes tumblin' down;
I'll be there if you ever need me,
True love won't let you down.
Short term lovers under covers,
Well, now that don't mean a thing.
When you find out what you're missin',
Well, I hope it ain't too late.
'Cos when you need someone to hold you,
When your world comes tumblin' down;
I'll be there if you ever need me,
True love won't let you down.
I'll be there if you ever need me,
True love won't let you down.
True love won't let you down.
Heather Myles's song "True Love" centers around a woman waiting for a man who cannot commit. She is tired of waiting for him, as he has many women waiting for him too. The man lives a cavalier and reckless lifestyle with the belief that time is still on his side. The woman emphasizes that short-lived relationships that only involve sex are not real love, and she hopes the man realizes this before it is too late. She assures him that when he finally feels like he needs somebody to hold him during tough times, she would be there. She believes that true love never fails and will not let him down.
Myles delivers an excellent vocal performance in "True Love," and her lyrics are relatable to many listeners. The lyrics portray the struggles of someone waiting for the right person, and the disappointment of discovering that the person whom they thought was 'The One' is not the right choice for them. The song is a great reminder that while we might not have control over who we fall in love with, we must not settle for anything less than true love that lasts a lifetime.

When country was country. Love the 90's

I don't listen to country music but I love her. She's more western than country, more Bakersfield than Nashville. She's authentic.
