Love Was

[Intro]
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no
(Don't leave me)

[Verse 1]
Forever is a long time
And I can't ever say I won't be wrong, I
Guess I knew I could've done better, I
Couldn't say I guess I never did try
But would we ever work out?
I guess I'll never know
Blamin' no one but myself
Know you always could tell
And where do I go from here?
I always thought it'd be made clear
Before I know anyone else
Next time I'll get to know myself
'Cause I thought I knew myself
I guess you never can tell

[Chorus]
But surely if I knew what love was, I'd keep it
And if I knew what trust was, I'd give it all
And if I knew what time meant, I'd spend it
With a little care, a little care
If love was

[Verse 2]
Breakin' up don't feel the same no more
And frankly, I don't wanna play no more
In case I get bored, and it's not nice to say it
But I don't get jealous no more
You say I had my emotions
I'm just scared in case I never had 'em
Sometimes I feel like I have fallen
And other times I just wanted to battle
And I wonder if I'm too young to settle
I worry that I'm too old to not
But knowin' that you deserve better
I can never keep you here on lock
I can never keep you here on lock
Mainly, I can never keep you happy

[Chorus]
But surely if I knew what love was, I'd keep it
And if I knew what trust was, I'd give it all
And if I knew what time meant, I'd spend it
With a little care, a little care
If love was

[Bridge]
Love is a game, babe, I've played it
And if it's an enemy, babe, I've [?]
But don't tell me that it's kind
That it wants to be mine
'Cause it's never
On my side
And it kills me every time

[Chorus]
But surely if I knew what love was, I'd keep it
And if I knew what trust was, I'd give it all
And if I knew what time meant, I'd spend it
With a little care, a little care
If love was

[Outro]
A little care
If love was
