Duet with kiki dee
Written by cole porter
Available on the album duets
Suntanned, windblown
Honeymooners at last alone
Feeling far above par
Oh, how lucky we are
While i give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on it will always be
True love, true love
For you and i have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you as you give to me
Love forever, true
Love forever, true
Give me more true love
Oh yeah
True love, true love
Gotta give me your true love
Oh yeah
True love, true love
