Paul Banks - Love + War lyrics

[Intro: Paul Banks] You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You put me in line You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You put me in line [Chorus: Paul Banks] If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war What are you keeping score for? [Verse 1: Ghostface k**ah] Yo she f**ed around and cut up my rhyme books to shreds She caught me f**ing her friend in our bed I used to try to tell her to stop talking to the fellas Come around with that short a** dress and soft melons Zigliani sh** the deed to the crib Balenciaga wrist, a gift from the kid But we stay beefing, boo with no brocolli Everytime I come in the crib I'm in the hot seat Breaking all my watches gold plate Versace You said you didn't mean that sh** cause you was toxi Probably argue everday as a hobby We used to be like Claire and Bill Cosby So what the hell we held hands on the regular Writing I love you on napkins on the table love Completion it depends on the season Cause soon as June and July hit we beefin' Not speaking it increases Feels like my love broke down to depletion Then we get back together that's decent Last week you keyed my Benz and that's recent [Pre-Chorus: RZA] She's b**hin' I'm b**hin' She's switchin, I'm switchin' She's talkin' I'm not listenin' I'm b**hin' bout her in the kitchen [Chorus: Paul Banks] If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war What are you keeping score for? [Verse 2: RZA] She's high maintenance She lacks patience But for her love, there's no replacement Face to face, waist embrace, men chase the taste And most will get sprung from the first engagement I met her on a downtown street down east Now it seems she's always around me And her love has astounded me, bounded me There's no way I can break free A servant to her will I'm a merchant to her field I poured my heart out And she let my love spill Out on the floor the love changed the war Both trying to win trying to claim the law Infatuation morphed to fabrication Pa**ion kept alive through imagination Opposite sides attract and collided The collision was a bad decision Two lovers trapped in one prison Trying to separate like nuclear fission [Pre-Chorus: RZA] She's b**hin' I'm b**hin' She's switchin, I'm switchin' She's talkin' I'm not listenin' I'm b**hin' bout her in the kitchen [Chorus 1: Paul Banks] If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war What are you keeping score for? If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war If all is fair in love and war You best secure your borders [Outro: Paul Banks] You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You put me in line You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You coulda been mine but You put me in line
