True Companion Lyrics

Marc Cohn True Companion

Baby I’ve been searching like everyone else
Can’t say nothing different about myself
Sometimes I’m an angel
And sometime I’m cruel
And when it comes to love
I’m just another fool
Yes I’ll climb a mountain
I’m gonna swim the sea
There ain’t no act of God girl
Could keep you safe from me

My arms are reaching out
Out across the canyon
I’m asking you to be my true companion
True companion
True companion

So don’t you dare and try to walk away
I’ve got my heart set on our wedding day
I’ve got this vision of a girl in white
Made my decision that it’s you allright
And when I take your hand
I’ll watch my heart set sail
I’ll take my trembling fingers
And I’ll lift up you veil
Then I’ll take you home
And with wild abandon
Make love to you just like a true companion
You are my true companion
True companion

When the years have done
Irreparable harm
I can see us walking slowly arm in arm
Just like that couple on the corner do
‘Cause girl I will always be in love with you
And when I look in your eyes
I’ll still see that spark
Until the shadows fall
Until the room grows dark
Then when I leave this Earth
I’ll be with the angels standin’
I’ll be out there waiting
For my true companion
True companion
True companion
