Lyrics
Love AinÃ?Â?t Always Pretty
�© Adams / McEwan / Matthews 2003
The clock ticks a whole lot faster these days
The crosses on the calendar burn red
I really should be smarter with my sad romantic ways
I laugh at all the crazy things I said
DonÃ?Â?t wanna be everything to everyone
But IÃ?Â?d like to be something to someone
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty, Love ainÃ?Â?t always right
Just another lonely shoulder to ease me through the night
From this side of the morning I know it isnÃ?Â?t right
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty
Will you say with me tonight
Too old for playing stupid childish games
I prefer to live this life with a smile
Seems to me you sit there and youÃ?Â?re thinking just the same
Please stay with me a while
DonÃ?Â?t wanna be everything to everyone
But IÃ?Â?d like to be something to someone
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty, Love ainÃ?Â?t always right
Just another lonely shoulder to ease me through the night
From this side of the morning I know it isnÃ?Â?t right
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty
Will you stay with me tonight
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty, Love ainÃ?Â?t always right
Just another lonely shoulder to ease me through the night
From this side of the morning I know it isnÃ?Â?t right
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty
Will you stay with me tonight
Love ainÃ?Â?t always pretty
Will you stay with me tonight
