Love on a Two Way Street
Stacy Lattisaw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love on a two way street and lost it on a lonely highway
True love will never die, so I've been told, but now I must cry
It's finally goodbye, I know
With music softly playing, his lips were gently saying : "I love you"
He held me in desperation, I thought it was a revelation
How could I be so blind, to give up love for 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 he laughs my name
With music softly playing, his lips were gently saying: "Honey, I love you."
He held me in desperation, I thought it was a revelation,
And then he 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
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
