Love on the rocks ain’t no surprise. Just pour me a drink, and I’ll tell you some lies.
Got nothin’ to lose, so you just sing the blues all the time.
Gave you my heart, gave you my soul. You left me alone here with nothing to hold.
Yesterday’s gone. Now all I want is a smile.
First they say they want you, plead how they really need you.
Suddenly, you find you’re out there, walking in a storm.
When they know they have you, then they really have you.
Nothing you can do or say, you’ve got to leave, just get away.
We all know the song.
You need what you need, you can say what you want.
Not much you can do when the feeling is gone.
Maybe blue skies above, but it’s cool when your love’s on the rocks.
First they say they want you, plead how they really need you.
Suddenly, you find you’re out there, walking in a storm.
When they know they have you, then they really have you.
Nothing you can do or say, you’ve got to leave, just get away.
We all know the song.
Love on the rocks ain’t no big surprise. Just pour me a drink, and I’ll tell you my lies.
Yesterday’s gone and now all I want is a smile.
