True love will find you in the end
You'll find out just who was your friend
Don't be sad, I know you will,
But dont give up until
True love will find you in the end
This is a promise with a catch
Only if you're looking can it find you
‘Cause true love is searching too
But how can it recognize you
Unless you step out into the light?
Don't be sad i know you will
But don’t give up until
True love finds you in the end.

    General Comment:All of our lives we look for love in all the wrong places, the true love is the unconditional, unadulterated love of our Lord that we all have a yearning for because we walked with Him before we came to this planet.

    Don't give up on searching for that love, because even if you don't find it while you are alive, it will find you in the end.

    General Comment:I agree that this song is sad, if only because it illustrates the faulty 'black or white' reasoning of people with DJ's mental illness/attitude. You see it in many of his songs: his idealistic belief in true love, as in this song, on the one hand, and his pathologically negative view of the world, as in devil town, for example, on the other.

    He can't take that boring middle path where everything is 'just ok' that for most of us makes life tolerable.

    Luckily for us listeners, his take on the world makes for beautiful songs.

    Song Meaning:Anyone else interpret this song to be pretty damn sad?

    "True love will find you in the end
    You'll find out just who was your friend."

    You'll know who your real friends were in the end (at your funeral) because they will be the only ones there.

    "But how can it recognize you
    Unless you step out into the light?"

    You wont find out until you step out into the light (go to heaven).

    At least that's what I got out of the song. Totally amazing and sad...

    General Comment:so many people have already used the word "beautiful" to describe this song and I will ALSO use it. This song is honestly one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. It's just so raw, and powerful. Anybody that has been in love or anyone that is in love can relate to this song. In Johnston We Trust.

    General Comment:This song is so inspiring.

    I know we've all had those few songs in life that just feel like they were written for us, & this is one of mine. :]
    Especially the bit about "don't be sad, i know you will. True love will find you in the end."

    Story of my life; no matter how much someone is hurt over love, it's no good telling them not to be sad, because we know they will. But if they just sit tight, true love will find them. :]

    So lovely!
