True Love Way

I want in like a substitute
I' ve been working awful hard for you
But you dont say, you just hold your breath
So I can't touch what I haven't yet
She's a cold one and it hurts me so
It's a dark path and a heck of a toll
And she could kill me just like she did before.

We'd be so free
Happy alone
Sharing a smile
So far from home.

Pushing and a pulling weight
It's the hard part but the true love way
Girl you're wanted like a wanted man
With your smart mouth and your killer hand
We could both share all that I have made
For a young man it's a heck of a wage
And I feel crazy when I see your face.

Cause we'd be so free
Happy alone
Sharing a smile
So far from home
And we would laugh
Laugh till we cried
Making up songs
You're making me lie.

And people say our babies are walking this town
And people say our babies are walking this town
And people say our babies are just wanderin' around
And people say our babies are walking.

We'd be so free
Happy alone
Sharing a smile
So far from home
And we would laugh
Laugh till we cried
Making up songs
You're making me lie
Happy alone.
