Bon Jovi › Lyrics › This Ain't a Love Song

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 good night
You really meant goodbye

Baby, ain't it funny, how we never ever learn to fall?
You're really on your knees, 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 I died for you, baby
I tried and I tried to deny
Your love drove me crazy, baby

If the love that I 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 dancin' at the masquerade
Clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade
When you and I we 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

If the love that I got for you is gone
And if the river I 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 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

If the love that I 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

If the pain that I'm feeling 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
