This Ain't a Love Song

 

Should have seen it coming when roses died

Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes

I should have listened when you said "Good night"

You really meant "Good bye"

 

Baby, ain't it funny, how you never ever learn to fall

You're really on your knees, when you think you're standing tall

But only fools are "know-it-alls"

And I played that fool for you

 

I cried and I cried there were nights that died for you, baby

I tried and I tried to deny that your love drove me crazy, baby

 

If the love that I got for you is gone

If the river I cried ain't that long

Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong

This ain't a love song

 

Baby, I thought you and me would stand the test of time

Like we got away with the perfect crime but

We were just a legend in my mind

I guess that I was blind

 

Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade

The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade

You and I were the renegades,

And some things never change

 

It made me so mad 'cause I wanted it bad for us, baby

Now it's so sad that whatever we had, ain't worth saving

 

If the love that I got for you is gone

If the river I've cried ain't that long

Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong

This ain't a love song

 

If the pain that I'm feeling so strong

Is the reason that I'm holding on

Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong

This ain't a love song

 

I cried and I cried there were nights that I died for you, baby

I tried and I tried to deny your love drove me crazy, baby

 

If the love that I got for you is gone

If the river I cried ain't that long

Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong

This ain't no love song

 

If the pain that I'm feeling so strong

Is the reason I'm holding on

Then I'm wrong, yeah, I'm wrong

This ain't a love song
