[Verse 1] if it's not what you want it could be just what you need you can play all you want baby but remember that nothing's for free [Guitar} [Verse 2] One by one you always play your hand this guy or that, but you never make a stand your heart's up for sale, but still closed at the same time when nothing is real, it's so hard to walk the straight line [Chorus] {Layered Background Harmonies] (That's not love), don't even try to pretend OOOHHHooooh no tears will fall, when it comes to an end why can't you see it's all built on lies OOOHHHooooh girl I'm standing right here, you don't have to do this again [Verse 3] I've been standing here, waiting all along you pretend not to see, so I decided to write you this song when you finally decide that the time is right you'll see that truth shining like the stars in the bright night sky [Bridge] Maybe someday, you'll see what I've been trying to show all the love you keep running from, is the one you need the most if you slow it down, listen close and you can hear the only heartbeat that's real, is the one beating right here [Guitar Solo] [Outro] When the spotlight drops, and the crowds gone home it will be my voice you hear ringing in the dark all alone if you ever want something real, you know right where I'll be. Still sitting here playing that song you'd never see [Chorus] {Layered Background Harmonies] (That's not love), don't even try to pretend OOOHHHooooh no tears will fall, when it comes to an end why can't you see it's all built on lies OOOHHHooooh girl I'm standing right here, you don't have to do this again [Chorus] {Layered Background Harmonies] (That's not love), don't even try to pretend no tears will fall, when it comes to an end why can't you see it's all built on lies OOOHHHooooh girl I'm standing right here, you don't have to do this again That's not , that's not love no that's not, that's not love
