Lovers Lyrics

	Lyrics：Mickey Newbury Music：Mickey Newbury Arranger：John Farrar
	Once they were lovers but now they're not friends
	She's found another--he says it's the end
	To think they once tore down the wall for a door
	But now they don't speak anymore
	So he walks the streets--the few nights he can stand
	Drinking her memory away when he can
	Friends once would reach out to them from the shore
	But now they don't cry anymore
	How does it all come to happen
	That's not what loving is for
	And if I thought it was, I'd leave here in the morning
	I'd sooner sleep on the floor
	Oh when will we learn really what loving is
	It's not what you get in return but what you give
	To think they once tore down the wall for a door
	But now they don't speak anymore

	Once they were lovers but now they' re not friends
	She' s found anotherhe says it' s the end
	To think they once tore down the wall for a door
	But now they don' t speak anymore
	So he walks the streetsthe few nights he can stand
	Drinking her memory away when he can
	Friends once would reach out to them from the shore
	But now they don' t cry anymore
	How does it all come to happen
	That' s not what loving is for
	And if I thought it was, I' d leave here in the morning
	I' d sooner sleep on the floor
	Oh when will we learn really what loving is
	It' s not what you get in return but what you give
	To think they once tore down the wall for a door
	But now they don' t speak anymore
