“Never Love You”
By: Steve Everett
Verse 1
I’ve got a real bad habit of thinking I’m the one
Who can put things right when no one else could get it done
But a thing stays broken when it’s broken for so long
All I do is paint myself another shade of wrong
Chorus
I could never love you but I’m sure I’d like to try
Lost causes turn me on and cut me like a knife
You say you’re broken and I just might be the cure
I’d love to fix you up and leave you wanting more
Verse 2
We could last the weekend we could talk all night
I could let my shoulder soak up every tear you cry
But the morning’s coming and the Monday sun
Brings back the pain from all the battles that you’ve won
Bridge
I’m leaving with nothing
Cause you’re not gonna change
I hate to admit it but I like it that way
