It’s Not A Love Song

[Chorus]
I wrote a song about you
It’s not a love song
It doesn’t paint you true
But nobody will know that

[Verse 1]
I think I could have been kinder
But I could have been colder
When I was trying to love you
I cut myself on your shoulders

And I remember kissing collarbones
And counting all your freckles
And I remember kissing pictures
And counting all our smiles

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not love if it was just pretend
That’s why this doesn’t count as giving in

[Chorus]
I wrote a song about you
It’s not a love song
It doesn’t paint you true
But nobody will know that

[Verse 2]
Your hand in my back pocket
That’s where you said you’d leave it
And I, walked away feeling high
But then you removed it
And I got to thinking
Maybe that was just another lie

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not love if it was just pretend
That’s why this doesn’t count as giving in

[Chorus]
I wrote a song about you
It’s not a love song
It doesn’t paint you true
But nobody will know that

[Verse 3]
So now we’re worse than strangers
Cause we never knew better
I’m not the one who did you wrong
You broke my heart first
So don’t hate me
Cause I dragged yours through the dirt

Maybe I was too insecure
Always thinking of you
Thinking of her

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it’s love cause it wasn’t pretend
So maybe I was wrong and now I’m giving in

[Chorus]
I wrote a song about you
It’s not a love song
It doesn’t paint us true
But nobody will know that
But nobody will know that

[Outro]
Oh this song’s for you
And everybody knows that

Loved You Dangerously

[Verse 1]
Seeing you with him
Oh, it messes me up
Knowing you could do without me
So, I’m the one you gave up

Maybe I’m the fool
I should have known that
If he ever called your name
You’d go running right back

[Pre-Chorus]
I can see it on your face
I can hear it in your words
You’re thinking of his smile
Thinking of his curves
Thinking bout how he heals you
Bout how it never hurts

[Chorus]
But if it never hurts
Is it really real?
Can you get high
Without the pain
Can you be happy
If you’re never sad or lonely
Maybe he’s better for you than me
But baby I loved you dangerously
Baby I loved you with all of me

[Verse 2]
In a city this size
I should never see your face
But I still go to those places
Where they know us by name
And they tell me they’ve seen you
Another man on your arm
Maybe I’m addicted to the pain
Cause it reminds me you’re gone

[Pre-Chorus]
I saw it on your face
I heard it in your words
You were thinking of his smile
Thinking of his curves
Thinking bout how he healed you
Bout how it never hurt

[Chorus]
But if it never hurts
Is it really real?
Can you get high
Without the pain
Can you be happy
If you’re never sad or lonely
Maybe he’s better for you than me
But baby I loved you dangerously
Baby I loved you with all of me

[Verse 3]
Your friends tell me you’re happy
I’m truly glad for that
I could never stand, to see you cry
But it was when I knew you loved me
When there were tears in your eyes

They tell me you don’t cry for him
Makes me wonder why

[Pre-Chorus]
Can he see it on your face?
Can he hear it in your words?
Are you thinking of my smile
Thinking of my curves
Thinking bout how I healed you
After every time it hurt

[Chorus]
Cause if it never hurts
Is it really real?
Can you get high
Without the pain
Can you be happy
If you’re never sad or lonely
Maybe he’s better for you than me
But baby I loved you dangerously
Baby I loved you with all of me
