She Couldn't Love Me Anymore

(album: Brilliant Conversationalist - 1987)

She played easy to get
Never gave me less
Than her very best
She couldn't love me anymore

And she held me tight
Night after night
Even if she tried
She couldn't love me anymore

She would've followed me anywhere
But I was just leading her on
I never knew I had a good thing going
I just didn't miss it 'til she was gone

Oh oh
She found a man who understands
And when she lost her heart to him
She couldn't love me anymore
Oh no, she couldn't love me anymore

I used to turn my back on her
Just to hear her beg me to stay
I always thought that she'd come running
Until she walked away oh no

Now she holds him tight night after night
And even if she tried
She couldn't love me anymore

Oh no
She couldn't love me anymore
The last thing she told me was
She couldn't love me anymore

Even if she tried
She couldn't love me anymore
