This Ain't a Love Song

Suddenly...all I can think of listening is this song...always been a fave of mine, yet the meaning never really dawn on me...that is, until now...*sigh

I should have seen it coming 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 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've played that fool for you

I cried and cried every night

There were nights that I died for you baby

I tried and I tried to deny it

that your love drove me crazy baby

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

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

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

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
