This Ain’t a Love Song




I should have seen it comin’ when the roses died
Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes
I should have listened when you said good night
You really meant goodbye
Baby, ain’t it funny how we never ever learn to fall?
You’re really on your knees when you think you’re standin’ tall
But only fools are know-it-alls and I played that fool for you

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’ve got for you is gone
And if the river I’ve 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 dancin’ at the masquerade?
The clowns wore smiles that wouldn’t fade
But you and I were the renegades
Some things never change

It made me so mad ‘cause I wanted it bad for us, baby
And now it’s so sad that whatever we had ain’t worth saving

Oh, if the love that I’ve got for you is gone
And 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 feelin’ so strong
Is the reason I’m holdin’ on
Then I’m wrong
Yeah, I’m wrong
This ain’t a love song
Oh, oh

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’ve got for you is gone
And 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 feelin’ so strong
Is the reason I’m holdin’ on
Then I’m wrong
Yeah, I’m wrong
This ain’t a love song

Then I’m wrong
Yeah, I’m wrong
This ain’t a love song
Then I’m wrong
Yeah, I’m wrong
This ain’t a love song
