Love Just Ain't For Me lyrics:

[verse 1]
My dearest Sara, what a time we had!
When we departed I felt so sad
But life ran it's course, no not meant to be
And you quickly got over me

[chorus]
Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!
Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!

[verse 2]
Hello again Frida, how have you been?
Remember that time in Munich?
Though we don't talk anymore, you were never a bore,
You never had time to be lovesick, like me!

[chorus]
Oh, Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!
Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!

[verse 3]
Gertrude, my dear, you seemed so sincere,
I always felt that you loved me,
But time is a curse and your love just got worse
And I had to run away and flee from you!

[chorus]
Oh, Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!
Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!

[verse 4: very emotional vocal, almost a whisper]
Sadie, my lady, you always seemed so sweet,
But most times you would get your own way
When you said goodbye, I could never even cry
And I haven't been the same since that day...

[chorus]
So, Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!
Lie, lie, lie, la, la, laaa, la, lee
I guess love just ain't for meee!
