True Love Never Runs Smooth

(Burt Bacharach - Hal David)

(La la-la-la la la la la la-la-la-la-la)

Verse 1:

Stand beside me all the while no matter what goes wrong

Separately we're weak, together we'll be strong

Chorus 1:

For true love never runs smooth, but I don't care, 'cause

True love is worth all the pain, the heartaches and tears

That we may share

Verse 2:

When the world outside my arms is pulling us apart

Press your lips to mine and hold me with your heart

Chorus 2:

For true love never runs smooth, that's what they say, but

True love is worth all the pain, the heartaches and tears

We have to face

[key modulates to Ab]

(La la-la-la la la la la la-la-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la-la la la la-la-la la)

For true love never runs smooth, that's what they say, but

True love is worth all the pain, the heartaches and tears

We have to face
