lyrics

She said,
"You'll make a lucky girl happy some day, but darling it's just not me."

A five page letter next to a dull wedding ring
That I'd seen twenty years before
She said she'd moved on to different things
The spark is gone, and you're such a bore

The be professional at the art of love
Isn't a skill, but a waste of time
And if you asked me what I thought of love
And what I think now, I'd say it's a crime

I clench my jaw and I close my eyes
Your perfume still lingers here
You tried to cover this all up with lies
Cover up how this all appears.

The be professional at the art of love
Isn't a skill, but a waste of time
And if you asked me what I thought of love
And what I think now, I'd say it's a crime

You were the reason that I got up in the morning
And now you're why I can't sleep at night
You should have given me some kind of warning
Cause now I know things will never be alright

The be professional at the art of love
Isn't a skill, but a waste of time
And if you asked me what I thought of love
And what I think now, I'd say it's a crime

She said,
"You'll make a lucky girl happy some day."
But darling, I'm glad it ain't you.
