Furs frontman Richard Butler had a specific audience in mind when he penned the lyrics to this song. He explained in an interview with Creem in 1982: "It's basically addressed to people who are f--ked up about their sexuality, and says 'Don't worry about it.' Well I'm on my way, on my way. And when you're bound to second place. Well I'm on my way, on my way oh. So don't believe it's all in vain. Cause I'm on my way, on my way oh. The lie I did is worth the pain. 'Cause I'm on my way, on my way oh. I'll be there the moment. You come out in white. The Journey of Love: At its heart, “The Way of Love” is a song about the transformative power of love and the emotional journey it takes us on.

See all I want you to do is be my love (so don't give away) My love (so don't give away) A new road's waiting, you touched my life, oh. Soft and warm on a summer's night. You're the only one, I told you, the only one I love. The lovely one, I'm thinking of.
