On big alley stands a lady waiting For awhile Acting out an untold story like a Wounded child But the mystery of the circumstance Won't hide She believes true love survives True love survives Waiting for her long lost lover Returning from the war Though i know she knew the truth She also knew much more And the answer that she gave to all of us Whispered low saying True love survives True love survives Is she dreaming does she know A secret i can't see Maybe there's a trace of truth In all that she believes For one day i took a look deep down inside A voice cried saying true love's alive True love survives Only love will last forever true love will survive Only love will last forever true love will survive True is love is never-ending It's giving all and not pretending It's holding on although your heart Feels dead A quarter of a century of years Have gone by Still the dream of this peculiar Lady's kept alive So i'm holding tight to one who i desired A burning fire saying true love survives True love survives Only love will last forever Only love will last forever
