"True Love" is an album by American country music singer Crystal Gayle. Released in November 1982, it peaked at #14 on the Billboard Country Albums charts.

Three of the album's tracks reached #1 on the Country Singles chart; "Til I Gain Control Again", "Our Love Is on the Faultline" and "Baby What About You".

The oft-covered track "Everything I Own" was released as a single in the UK where it peaked at #93 on the UK Singles Chart in early 1983. The song was originally recorded by the band Bread in 1972, but was a UK #1 hit for Ken Boothe in 1974. In 1987, four years after Gayle's version, the song was recorded by Boy George (his first solo recording) who also had a UK #1 hit with it.

どちらかいうと平凡な、少しカントリー色を帯びたポップスです。80年代に入っているにしては地味な作りという印象。レコードの番号にキリ番をもらってますから、当時は人気があったんでしょうね・・・。ちなみに本作品はAllmusicで★4つ、U.S. Billboard Top Country Albumsでチャート14位を記録しています。

"Our Love Is On The Faultline"

Well, I hear it comin'
I can feel it in my bones
And it's weighin' heavy on me
Like a sack full of stones

And I see it in your eyes, baby
Each time we meet
And I sense somethin' movin'
Underneath our feet

Baby, our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe

You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love

Now there's a chilly wind a blowin'
And it's whippin' up a gale
Storm clouds are brewin'
And I know it's gonna hail

And I see it in your eyes, baby
Each time we meet
And sense somethin' movin'
Underneath our feet

Baby, our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe

You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love

I feel it in my bones, I see it in your eyes
Comin' up behind, here it comes
Hold on tight

You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love

Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe

You've been stirrin' up an earthquake
You've been cookin' up a heartbreak
And I hope it ain't too late
For our love, for our love

Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe

Our love is on the fault line
And you're sayin' that the fault's mine
I can't believe that you're so blind
Can't believe, can't believe
