Love’s a Funny Feeling

Choose your poison, be it whiskey or wine.

And let them buy me time to find a reason

Why you’re plaguing my mind

Even though I know you’re no longer mine.

Primadonna, I hope this finds you well

With my heart inside your pocket

Like a pretty prison cell of isolation, temptation,

And broken expectations, 

Where there’s really no escaping from a past infatuation.

With the image of perfection that’s suspended in my eyes

Whose promises denial can’t ignore.

When I never saw it coming so I had to let it go.

I tell you love's a funny feeling but baby I ain’t laughing no more. 

Now I wonder where you’re sleeping tonight

I had it coming but it still don’t feel right.

‘Cause after all we’ve been through

I guess the guilt’s overdue

And I wish that I could see it

As the start of something new

But I’ve been crawling through my dignity

And swallowing my pride

While you were fixed on settling the score.

I said, “I’m into starting over.”

You said, “Over’s starting now.”

I tell you love's a funny feeling

But baby I ain’t laughing no more.

Now all the exit signs fill the medicine lines

Stretching far as I can see.

Yes, I’ve gone astray, where the chemicals play

Won’t you crawl into a fire with me, 

Because you’re burning me out?

And you can find me waiting 

Where the wishing wells are running dry

With all the shipwrecked sailors on the shore.

Because you don’t know what you got 

Until you’ve thrown it all away.

I tell you love's a funny feeling,

Repelling and appealing,

But baby, I ain’t laughing no more.
