This Ain't a Love Song

I 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, aint it funny, how you never ever learn to fall

Youre 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

Chorus:

If the love that I got for you is gone

If the river I cried aint that long

Then Im wrong, yeah Im wrong, this aint 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

But you and I were the renegades, some things never change

It made me so mad because I wanted it bad for us baby

And now it's so sad that whatever we had ain't worth saving

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 feeling so strong

Is the reason 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
