If That's What You Call Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can't believe she had the nerve
To show her face again
I can't believe she got to you
And now you're givin' in
Remember how she walked away
For reasons she could not explain?
Now she says she's changed her mind
And wants you back after all this time
If that's what she calls lovin' you
If that's the best that she can do
Darlin', I can promise you
It's not what you're worthy of
Is that what you call livin' proof
Is that what you call a dream come true
Darlin', you're not dreamin' big enough
If that's what you call love
After all she put you through
She expects you to pretend
That she has never lied to you
And she never would again
Now that her world has fallen through
She figures she'll just fall back on you
She needs you now but don't be confused
She only wants what she can use
If that's what she calls lovin' you
If that's the best that she can do
Darlin', I can promise you
It's not what you're worthy of
Is that what you call livin' proof
Is that what you call a dream come true
Darlin', you're not dreamin' big enough
If that's what you call love
Is that what you call livin' proof
Is that what you call a dream come true
Darlin', you're not dreamin' big enough
If that's what you call love
