True love, talkin' bout true love
Gotta have real love
Whatcha gonna do?
True love

Love don't hate, love don't play those games with your mind
Love forgives, true love lives forever and all time
I'll never treat you like a stranger, turn my back in times of danger
Love don't act that way, I said love don't act that way

True love, talkin' bout true love
Gotta have real love
Whatcha gonna do?
True love

Love is patient, love is kind, love won't let you down
It won't deceive, love will never keep the past around
Never worries, never lies no
Never leaves you, never dies
Love don't act that way
I said love don't act that way

True love, talkin' bout true love
Gotta have real love
Whatcha gonna do?
True love

True love, talkin' bout true love
Gotta have God's love
Whatcha gonna do?
True love
(chorus repeated)

Behind the Song:
"Sometimes it's hard today to tell if someone's love is real (fair-dinkum, as Australians would say!), but true love, God's love, is a long-term love which stands the test of time and is shown to us in Jesus." - Rebecca St. James
