I Found Love on a Two Way Street
Moments Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And lost it on a lonely highway
Love on a two way street
And lost it on a lonely highway
True love,
Will never die
So I've been told
It is finally goodbye
I know
With music softly playing,
Her lips were gently saying
"I love you"
She held me in desperation
I thought it was a revelation
And then she walked out
How could I be so blind
To give up love the very first time
To be fooled is a hurting pain
To be loved and fooled is a crying shame
While I bear the blame
As she laughs my name
With music softly playing
Her lips were gently saying
"Honey, I love you."
She held me in desperation
I thought it was a revelation
And then she walked out
I found love on a two way street
And lost it on a lonely highway
Love on a two way street
And lost it on a lonely highway
Bye, bye baby, bye, bye
Lost it on a lonely highway

Line by Line Meaning
I found love on a two way street
I discovered true love in the form of a reciprocal connection
And lost it on a lonely highway
But, unfortunately, circumstances pulled us apart and the love faded away
True love,
Genuine and pure romantic affection
Will never die
Enduring and timeless, beyond the bounds of human existence
So I've been told
As a common belief shared by many
But now I must cry
Yet, despite this, I find myself shedding tears over its loss
It is finally goodbye
The end of our love story has arrived, closing this chapter of my life
I know
I am certain of this fact, painful though it may be
With music softly playing,
Background melodies augmenting the emotional atmosphere of the moment
Her lips were gently saying
Using nonverbal communication to express love
"I love you"
A declaration of affection and commitment
She held me in desperation
Grasping for emotional stability and comfort
I thought it was a revelation
I believed this connection was a life-changing moment and a breath of fresh air
And then she walked out
But ultimately, she left our relationship behind and didn't look back
How could I be so blind
I failed to see the truth and accept reality
To give up love the very first time
I made a mistake by letting go of love too easily
To be fooled is a hurting pain
Being deceived and misled hurts greatly
To be loved and fooled is a crying shame
To have someone pretend they care for you is a shameful experience.
While I bear the blame
I accept responsibility for being part of the cause of the downfall of our love.
As she laughs my name
Meanwhile, she takes pleasure in mocking and ridiculing me behind my back
Bye, bye baby, bye, bye
A final farewell to my lost love
Lost it on a lonely highway
Our love fell apart in a desolate, unhappy setting
