True Love
To infinity and Beyond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's about time you caught up with me
Or should I say I caught up with you
Anyway it was inevitable
Love's sweet aroma leaves quite a trace
Too bad it doesn't last
It never has, it never will
It just can't last
Damn (why can't it last?)

Step down
Let my hollowness embrace you
Step down
And my emptiness corrupt you

Do I ever get lonely?
There's only one of us left now
What do you think?
Of course there's always old Mr. Hate
Not too much company in him after the apocalypse
Too bad "travel" is not part of my vocabulary

Step down
Let my hollowness embrace you




Step down
And my emptiness corrupt you

Overall Meaning

The song True Love by To infinity and Beyond is a poignant reflection on the evanescence of love. The lyrics capture the bittersweet feeling of catching up with someone you once loved and realizing that love doesn't last. The singer acknowledges that love has a sweet aroma that leaves a trace, but then admits that it can never last. This pessimistic view of love is underscored by the refrain "It just can't last, damn (why can't it last?)" which expresses the singer's deep frustration with the fleetingness of love.


The song takes an even darker turn in the second verse when the singer asks if they ever get lonely. The answer is ambiguous, with the singer saying "There's only one of us left now, what do you think?" This could mean that the other person they once loved is no longer around, leaving them feeling lonely, or it could mean that the singer themselves is the only one left, implying that they are a survivor of some kind of catastrophe. The reference to "old Mr. Hate" suggests that they are living in a post-apocalyptic world. Despite the bleakness of their situation, the singer still longs for companionship, even if it means embracing their hollowness and emptiness.


Overall, True Love is a sobering reminder that even the most intense and passionate love can be fleeting and transient. The song's melancholic melody and reflective lyrics capture the bittersweet feeling of reminiscing about a past love.
