You'd maybe chance your lot To lose your not-so-lucky child But I've heard your chains jangle Lifelines cross the tangles But never could really mingle Love hearts melt and tingle The sweetest effervescence With built-in obsolescence Like a bubblegum when the flavor's gone Might as well melt away The flowing love songs are all I play And you hear what they say This break-and-go can take such knocks And I don't hope I'll be going up high Still, I'll take it from the top When I hit the bottom, it still comes as a shock But if there's a lesson to be learned I'm either stupid or happier being burned Is my attention so intolerable? Am I really so disposable? Like a bubblegum when the flavor's gone Might as well melt away The flowing love songs are all I play And you hear what they say Can't you hear what they say? I've never had a love like this before I've never had a love like this before
