True Love
The Platters & The Drifters Lyrics

If you cry I think my heart would break
My love for you runs so deep that the thought of you shedding a tear causes a great deal of pain in my heart.

That would be much more than I could take
It would be unbearable for me to see you cry and I do not think I could handle it emotionally.

And if I saw a tear fall from your eye
Even the mere sight of a tear falling from your beautiful eyes would be devastating for me.

Darling don't you know that I would die
I love you so much that I cannot imagine living without you. The thought of you in sorrow would make it hard for me to hold onto life.

If you cry I don't know what I'll do
I fear that I may become helpless if I saw you shedding tears. Your tears have such a profound effect on me that I cannot predict my own reaction.

Baby cause I'm so in love with you
My love for you is so strong that it has rendered me powerless. You hold the key to my heart.

And if I knew that I had caused you pain
The thought of hurting you, even accidentally, is too much for me to bear. I would be crushed by the mere knowledge of your suffering caused by me.

My tears would fall like the rain
I would be so devastated by my actions that I would be unable to hold back my tears. They would pour out like a never-ending rain.

True love, true love
This is the true love that they speak of, a love that is deep, passionate and all-consuming.

True love, true love
A love that makes you feel alive, a love that is worth every sacrifice and challenge that comes your way. This is true love.
