This Ain't A Love Song lyrics

Should have seen it coming when the roses died

Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes

Should have listened when you said "Goodnight"

You really meant "Goodbye"

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

You're really on your knees when 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 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

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, 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

(Chorus)

If the love that I got for you is gone

And if the river I've cried ain't that long

Then I'm wrong, yea, 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

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

(Chorus)

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

Ooo, ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh
