Lyrics

LOVE'S NOT WORTH IT
by James Webb
© 2008. Amadeus WAM

Another night,
Of knowing love’s not worth it,
Never was.
Got herself in deep again,
Going to cry herself to sleep again.
Yet nothing compares,
To his scent on her bed,
Dreams in her head,
When he was here.

Another day,
Swearing that she’s over it,
Never again.
Wanting someone too much,
Anyone to ease that longing crush.
And oh the despair.
Knowing she broke all her rules,
She’s been a fool,
‘Cause love’s not worth it.

Bridge
Can’t look at the telephone,
Without thinking his name.
First thing checks her messages,
Hope lives on but restrained.
She could call him,
Be free of this misery.
But she imagines his cautious inflection,
Just can’t face the rejection.

Easy times,Until she thinks about him,
There’s no pain.
An hour or more of blissing,
Not worried something’s missing.
Then damn him he’s there,
Pictures of what might have been,
Lost in a dream,
And love’s not worth it.

(Repeat Bridge)

Another night,
Knowing love’s not worth it,
Never was.
Got herself in deep again,
Going to cry herself to sleep again.
Then damn him he’s there,
Shadows of what might have been,
Lost in a dream,
And love’s not worth it.
