I Could Use a Love Song

Usually a drink'll do the trick
Take the edge off quick
Sittin' in the dark
With a shared cigarette
Seein' eye to eye
And heart to heart
But maybe I'm just gettin' old
Used to work but now it don't
A long-gone drive
You know the kind where you
Take a turn and you don't know why
But it clears your mind
A surefire cure
I need somethin' stronger
That'll last a little longer
I could use a love song
That takes me back just like that
When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn't roll my eyes
At a guy and a girl that make it work
In a world that for me so far just seems
To go so wrong
Yeah I could use, I could use a love song
I wish I didn't know so much
I peeked behind the curtain
Now that magic rush feels like a trick
That isn't working
But I haven't lost all hope yet
Yeah it's hurtin' but it ain't dead yet
I could use a love song
That takes me back just like that
When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn't roll my eyes
At a guy and girl that make it work in a world
That for me so far just seems to go so wrong
Yeah I could use, I could use a love song
Give me a sign or a rhyme or a reason
Just somethin' that I can believe in
I could use a love song
That takes me back just like that
When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn't roll my eyes
At a guy and a girl that make it work in a world
That for me so far just seems to go so wrong
Yeah I could use, yeah I could use
I could use a love song
