Love of Mine

I’ve been watching you, my friend

I’ve been watching all the things that you try to do

Got my eyes on you, my friend

I’ve been checking all the moves, checking all the moves

Closer and closer; closer to the edge of your disaster

Nearer and nearer, nearer to the judgement day.

I know, she’s only going to love you ’til she breaks your heart

She’s only going to love you ’til she makes you cry

She’s only going to love you ’til she breaks your heart

She’s only going to love you ’til she makes you cry

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine.

I’ve been watching her, my friend

I’ve been watching her play you like a fish on a line

Watch her dangle you

Watch you dangling like a tanglefoot boy

On tanglefoot wine

Everything she tells you, everything she says

It sounds so pretty, it feels so fine

The questions that she fires, she fires just to

Check the range and shoot that line.

I know, she’s only going to love you ’til she breaks your heart

She’s only going to love you ’til she makes you cry

She’s only going to love you ’til she breaks your heart

She’s only going to love you ’til she makes you cry

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine.

I know, she’s only going to love you ’til she breaks your heart

She’s only going to love you ’til you break down and cry

She’s only going to love you ’til she breaks your heart

She’s only going to love you ’til she makes you cry

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine

I know she’s only going to love you ’till she breaks your heart

I know, she’s only going to love you ’till she breaks your heart in two

She was a love of mine

She was a love of mine

That girl was a love of mine.
