Elliott Smith - True Love lyrics

true love is a rose behind gla** that's locked and kept closed maybe just for me 'cos my soul's been attacked and shattered by tough love, bad love i bought mine on the street true love it just can't be beat i felt so complete married to heavenly bodies above and each night i'd look up at a bright honeymoon 'cos it sure seemed built to last and even after my honeymoon pa**ed i kept right on it man like a ghost to the house it was haunting day after day i'd steal with my true love away to some hide out left undisturbed we could do what we wanted but i started to feel like a liar saying i love you mad in love and at me there's no in between came on and on i found you can't make a stand i'm her hired hand i have to do harm one day i got sick she played me a nasty old trick said i need cigarettes walked round the block caught a cab stayed gone for too long and my love had gotten so strong just to try being back on my own i had to go to rehab all i need is a safe place to bleed is this where it's at having no chance steps in a dance your whole life's been in combat now i'm the king of the ward 'cos i'm good and i swallow my sword and puke it out for the doctors to write a new prescription tranquil as a dove people that have lost their true love all seem to fit the same description i feel cold, useless and old I wish i was no one take me home my love take me home today take me out of this place take me home with you today
