Love Don’t Last

I’m through with love
I close the book
I’m through with love
My final look
I’m through with love
It’s in my past
Through with love
Love don’t last

My life has been a car
Hurtling back and forth
Grinding to a halt
Hardly ever on course
Sometimes too slow
& then, sometimes fast
But I’m done with love
Love don’t last

Hey, when you’re in it
Easiest thing in the world
But then you trip
& it slips
Through your fingers
But never more now
You been my last love, girl

I’m done with love
I have to say
I’m done with love
Love don’t pay
My flag is flyin’
At half mast
I’m done with love
Love don’t last
