Lyrics
Nobody Stays In Love Anymore
She sails in like the ice queen, tryin? to keep her cool
In the fading light of desperate summers
She looks round for her fool
And there am I kicking off my shoes
As she takes off all her clothes and expounds upon her views.
She wakes up in the morning crumpled in our bed
Climbs onto my body and makes noises in my head
And there am I with her hair against my face
She breathes into my ear as I ease myself in place
Tried to leave so many times before
I turned and locked the door
But she still found her way in
I know that I don?t love her anymore
But I?m tired of keeping score of a multitude of sins.
?Cos nobody stays in love anymore
So we try to justify the lie we?re living
It?s easier to stay than to live your life alone
?Cos nobody stays in love anymore
I stay home in the evening, smoke a cigarette
Getting close to midnight and she hasn?t got home yet.
And there am I with my head against the wall
Sitting in the moonlight trying to make sense of it all.
Tried to leave but I guess I?m gonna stay
How could I turn away from the one I know so well
It?s not hard if you know your place
You occupy your space even though it may be hell.
?Cos nobody stays in love anymore
No-one gives a damn about forever
You give it when you got it
And you get it when you can
?Cos nobody stays in love anymore.
