Now the rich man and the poor man and the former queen of SpainnHave all had someone like you, they all have gone awaynAnd the fact that time will crawl or fly depending on the daynMakes every kiss a gift and everyone of us a saintnIf that ain’t lovenIt’s close enoughnnI heard my angel crying out she’d fallen from God’s gracenShe’d had enough, she drank the blood, she couldn’t stand the tastenFrom there to here’s a long way down but baby I can waitnI might be a fool to catch ya, let ya fall’d just be a wastenIf that ain’t lovenIt’s close enoughnnI should have took a breath instead I wired my jaw shutnI breathed deep through my nose and prayed my clothes’d turned to dustnStand naked as a babe the day I finally gave upnWhen all I’d say became profane I would not give a f..nIf that ain’t love,nIt’s close enoughnnMy eyes wandered round the crash site for to find your missing partsnI found your head, your perfect legs and your million dollar heartnTo my surprise I caught a cop he was climbing in the carnI was flashlight blind, jaws of life could not pry us apartnIf that ain’t lovenIt’s a lot of bloodnnI woke up from my dream to someone screaming in the roadnHe’d carved your name into his chest saying “baby please don’t go”nWhen I woke you up you whispered wearily and coldnYou said “baby shut the shades it’s just someone I used to know,nIt wasn’t love.
