I used to write love songs

But that was before

I understood how much true lovers ignore

They meet on the rebound

They bump in the night

Hum some sweet tune

Then they're tied up for life



CHORUS:

I never gave it a thought

I never thought I should think

I would go along with anyone and anything

Yes I would - living in sin



And there's nobody else

makes me feel how I feel

If I said I love you

It would have to be real

And I cannot lie to you

Love is too rare a thing

And romance is fine

When it's hard on your heels

But like the fashions you've abandoned

When it's run out of lines



CHORUS



I used to write love songs

But that was before

I understood how much true lovers ignore

They dance through the music

They don't watch the film

What was the point of your picture Mr. De Mille



CHORUS
