The Love You Lose

[Verse 1]
Are you in a hurry, headed for somewhere else?
Trying to get rid of your past so quickly, but only if it sells
It draws you into the distance, draws you away from me
Anywhere's better than here you say, but I know that this can't be

[Bridge 1]
When you speak I see bubbles pop up and read between the lines
No matter how hard you try to hide them, yeah, I can see the signs

[Chorus]
You're a pretty liar, honey
Yeah, you can bend the truth
So I'd rather let you leave me now
Than sit here with the blues
And I might try to change your mind
But what would be the use
'cause someday you'll be looking back
Regret the love you lose
You'll regret the love you lose

[Verse 2]
There's no thought to be wasted, and no word to speak
Here's the final farewell and the kisses on the cheek
So you got what you wanted, as cold as it may sound
You were looking for cheap entertainment
And that's what you have found

[Bridge 2]
When you loved you had no intentions, only flesh and skin
Satisfied with low expectations and nothing left to win

[Chorus]
You're a pretty liar, honey
Yeah, you can bend the truth
So I'd rather let you leave me now
Than sit here with the blues
And I might try to change your mind
But what would be the use
'cause someday you'll be looking back
Regret the love you lose
You'll regret the love you lose
