I've seen True Love
From the easy chair
As if love was fair
Not a million to one
Blind in this race toward the sun
Never over when it's done
And senseless
I've heard True Love
From the bleacher seats
Listened to it cheat
Seven can sound like life
A heartbeat silent as the night
The unfaithfulness rife
Ringing senseless
But I'll trust the sixth
Cause this red feels too blue
When I'm with you
It's senseless but True.
I've smelled True Love
From a kitchen chair
Bring warm bread to share
And three squares every day
Lingering in oil and sage
The scent of hunger kept at bay
Ever senseless
I tasted True Love
In a sandwich joint
Much sweeter to disappoint
Rolling ripe off my tongue
Tough and overdone
Another salty note unsung
And senseless
I touched True Love
And it touched me back
In a surprise attack
Burning hot in my hands
Stranger than far away lands
And I've run out of ways to say
