Lyrics

I walk in a vision in red
Your favorite movie playing on my silhouette
You turn to me just for a minute
Do you know my real secret

Make my move, spilling all my popcorn (over you)
You’re confused, what does a girl like me want

I want your hands
Your future plans
To the bitter end

Take a life for me
You know I’d do it instantly
In danger of a true romance
We are meant to be
I’d die for love and loyalty
In danger of a true romance
I don’t like the real world
I don’t like the real world
It’s tough out in the real world
Let’s go back to our world

Bullets fly you took him down and now we’re honeymooners dreaming bout
tropical skies

In trouble again
When does it end
Will it ever end

Running from the scene
More money than we could ever dream
In danger of a true romance
Bodies left to bleed
They all had it coming
In danger of a true romance

Thought I watched you die
I killed a man with tears in my eyes
In danger of a true romance
Saved you from that room
The powder and gold and the men were all doomed
Against our love they never stood a chance

Take a life for me
You know I’d do it instantly
In danger of a true romance
We are meant to be
I’d die for love and loyalty
In danger of a true romance
I don’t like the real world
I don’t like the real world
It’s tough out in the real world
Let’s go back to our world

I made True Romance together with my roommate Tim From The House. We both had a need to write something different and dramatic. It took me three days to get the lyrics right but I recorded it in one take. The lyrics are based on the movie True Romance, destructive cinematic love at its best and worst. We shot this scene for it in one take in the desert earlier this year. Kenny Laubbacher has always captured the emotional journey of the song perfectly in this scene. 💣🔨

She is really proving her vocal range!!! Completely baring her soul with original panache'

[rjs]

I never thought I would hear a song from Tove Lo that is just her voice and a drowned-out bass synth, but I am obsessed with this.

[chatterboxreb]

Tove Lo was the last gig I ever saw before the world shut down. She is one of my favourite artists of all time and I'm so excited about everything in this era. Got goosebumps listening/watching this. It's a SAD BOP SUMMER 💔

[dianaoyola]

The first time I heard this song, it literally took my breath away and I knew almost every lyric the second it was over. Thank you honey for such a tearfulled moment of beauty.

[rjs]

Tove Lo, Charli XCX, Rina, Bree Runway, Carly Rae Jepsen, Slayyyter, and many others creating these new, original sounds and styles is the best thing to happen to the industry in a long time imo. SO EXCITED FOR WHATS TO COME😍

[logan]

This has to be one of the best songs of the year. So underrated

[selispeks]

THIS IS INCREDIBLE! GURL!! YOUR PIPES ARE ON FIRE THIS ALBUM!!! Sounds like someone has finally regained all of their vocal control since the surgery, and WOW it has done amazing things for your voice! The passion, the emotion, the pain, it's so beautiful in your voice!!!

[FabiAraujok]

The rasp in her voice, the high notes 😭😭 AND MOM RECORDED THIS IN OME TAKE TOO 😭😭 Am I going to be alive until October???

[intnsfy]

my favorite artist of all time coming back after almost 2 years since an album project is the most adrenaline filled feeling ever. October 14th can't come fast enough

[zerothjetr]

She hated the real world so much that she started to walk around the upside down. What a queen!

[Outbackgabriel]

This song delivers so much on so many levels

[lisalewis]

God help me this is probably the most beautiful song ive ever heard. I CAN NOT listen without crying. Thank you for your awareness and power to speak our hearts with yours. My appreciation knows no bounds ❤

[zedstdow]

Her voice is tobacco caramel on a sugar waffle.
Such raspy raspberry rippling through the chords.
A purposeful song, lyrics of depth.
🎶⚡🤘😍✌️🔥💕⚡🎶

I only came across this lady last year whilst watching Dancing Queens on Netflix, and have been captivated by her honest, human and reflective lyrics. This is by far my favourite record of hers. Absolutely stunning. Praying she plays this in Birmingham @ O2 in November.

[BrookeFearghail]

So heartfelt, So unique in its timing and structure…and perfectly executed by this

[twistedtoad]

This is my favorite scene from the album so far. So raw and real, you and kenny captured this song soooo well. Whenever you tour this album i WILL be there.

[Supapandamonium]

Brilliant. Truly brilliant. I've enjoyed being your fan for 10 years, and I'll continue being a fan for many years more. Can't wait for your next album

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Unconventional yet catchy. I like this more progressive vibe. Way more experimental and musically fresh IMO.

[iamdiegogaleano]

First it was a true disaster, now it is a true romance ❤️‍🔥
