Once again last night you woke up in a cold sweat
You felt the covers around you
They just felt you right back
You reach but you know he's gone
You knew he wouldn't stick around too long
All the while you were thinking
You're just another girl for one of his songs
And it's so sad, it happened again
Just another smooth talking fellow with wandering hands
You're just another poem, he wrote
Another high five from his friends, he scored
Another great story he tells, one more
Don't you get it?
You're the girl with the love that is for sale
And you hide your face with your makeup
It'll be on your pillow in the morning before you wake up
The night before, the way your eyes looked
Your alarm clock greets you with a right hook
The taste in your mouth from the drinks last night
His breath still lingers on your neck
His hands took the tour of your body
Making sure to stop at every attraction
You're just another poem, he wrote
Another high five from his friends, he scored
Another great story he tells, one more
Don't you get it?
You're the girl with the love that is for sale
I guess you're wondering why I didn't call
And why your telephone just hangs there
The cord gently swaying from the wall
I must apologize
No, I can't defend my behavior
I'm just so afraid if I get too close to the flames I'll just get burnt
And that'd be so sad..
No, no that sounds like a personal problem to me
I'll have to write some stupid song to make myself feel better about the whole thing
Please don't hate me girl
I didn't know it would get this far
I'm just a coward
I'm so afraid of bleeding from the heart
I'm just another entry, inside her diary
Just one more hit and run
Don't you get it?
I'm the boy with the love that's not for sale
And if you walk in on me sleeping
And if you slit my throat tonight
I guess I got what I deserved
And you and me would be alright
You'd tell your friends
You'd fill them in
On every gory detail
I'm just another entry, inside of her diary
Just one more...
Don't you get it?
Why don't you get it?
I'm the boy with the love that's not for sale
