No Lover of Mine

 Sticky little thing called “love”
It’s a tricky thing to sync up
But I rolled those dice
‘Cause that night you were lookin’ like good luck

When you pulled me in so close
I felt a riptide from a foreign coast
And if I’d’ve known there was a time limit 
I would’ve kissed you harder
But I didn’t 

Now I’m diving in the deep of your eyes to find 
There ain’t no lover of mine 
Swimming in your touch feeling for a sign
But there ain’t no lover of mine 
I’m dying for those few days
When you said, “I want you always”
Wish I could go back in time
‘Cause today darlin’,
You ain’t no lover of mine

That night when you stripped your clothes 
Before your flight, cutting it close 
I thought we could save your tidal wave
For now I’d just dip my toes

When you flew to Mexico 
And said you were afraid we were letting go
I guess I didn’t think the distance could make a difference 
But it did, didn’t it?

‘Cause now you’re back and I’m diving in the deep of your eyes to find 
There ain’t no lover of mine 
Swimming in your touch feeling for a sign
But there ain’t no lover of mine 
I’m dying for those few days
When you said, “I want you always”
Wish I could go back in time
‘Cause today darlin’,
You ain’t no lover of mine

Diving in the deep of your eyes to find 
Swimming in your touch feeling for a sign
Dying for those few days
When you said, “I want you always”
Was it just a line?
‘Cause today darlin’,
You ain’t no lover of mine
Ain’t no lover of mine
Ain’t no lover, you ain’t no lover
You ain’t no lover of mine

Dedicated to all the relationships out there that ended just as they’d began.
