True Romance
NAMBA69 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now I'm in true romance
Feeling like I'm driving
Next to you
Sublime on the radio

Times are getting harder, boy
Feeling like I'm growing up
Next to you
Sublime we're all missing you

Death is not the answer, boy
So I sing a song
Death is not so glamorous
We are blessed with memories

Raise your fist and shout

Don't forget
When we were young and brand new
Days of youth
Don't say a word it's the truth
Don't forget
When we were young and brand new
Days of youth
I'll be on my way to you

Say now
Sing out loud
We walk together

Now I'm in true romance
Don't know how
Don't know what
Don't know how
Don't know what to say

Times are getting harder, boy
Feeling like I'm growing up




Next to you
My song on the radio
