Love Of Mine

I've been watching you, my friend,
I've been watching all the things that you try to do.
Got my eyes on you, my friend,
I've been checking all the moves, checking all the moves.
Closer and closer; closer to the edge of your disaster.
Nearer and nearer, nearer to the judgement day.

I know, she's only going to love you 'til she breaks your heart,
She's only going to love you 'til she makes you cry;
She's only going to love you 'til she breaks your heart,
She's only going to love you 'til she makes you cry.
She was a love of mine,
She was a love of mine;
She was a love of mine,
She was a love of mine...

I've been watching her, my friend,
I've been watching her play you like a fish on a line.
Watch her dangle you,
Watch you dangling like a tanglefoot boy
On tanglefoot wine.
Everything she tells you, everything she says;
It sounds so pretty, it feels so fine.
The questions that she fires, she fires just to
Check the range and shoot that line.

I know, she's only going to love you 'til she breaks your heart,
She's only going to love you 'til she makes you cry;
She's only going to love you 'til she breaks your heart,
She's only going to love you 'til she makes you cry.
She was a love of mine,
She was a love of mine;
She was a love of mine,
She was a love of mine...

I know, she's only going to love you 'til she breaks your heart,
She's only going to love you 'til you break down and cry;
She's only going to love you 'til she breaks your heart,
She's only going to love you 'til she makes you cry.
She was a love of mine,
She was a love of mine.
I know she's only going to love you 'till she breaks your heart;
I know, she's only going to love you 'till she breaks your heart in two.
She was a love of mine,
She was a love of mine...
That girl was a love of mine...
