Clover

David Marcouillier

Lyrics:

I don’t want to live to see that it’s over
But I don’t want to leave before my time.
So here’s what I’m gonna do.
No, no, baby, I ain’t gonna lose you,
I’ll just meet up with you further on down the line.

Well I can’t tell myself that it’s over
‘Cause I don’t want to look you in the eye
And tell you about all the things
I said while you weren’t listening.
And I don’t want to tell you, baby, that I lied.

I don’t want to live to see that it’s over
But for both of us to stay would be a crime.
So this part’s over.
I’ll never be your four-legged clover
But if you bring yourself back to me, babe, I will make you mine.

‘Cause I can’t tell myself that it’s over
And I don’t want to look you in the eye
And tell you about all the things
I said while you weren’t listening.
And if I don’t want to tell you, baby, it’s because I lied.
