John Hiatt - Love's Not Where We Thought We Left It lyrics

rate me

In the forest of no gravity

Where birds mock reality

We laid out some bread crumbs

Yeah but somebody ate 'em

Always thought we'd make it here

But here keeps movin'

How much blood, how many tears

It's never been proven

Love's not where we thought we left it

Who took the last of love and kept it

Caged love in, tried to protect it

Love's not where we thought we'd left it

The apostles were jealous

Of Mary Magdalene and Jesus

Said, "Why do you love her more than us?"

Jesus turned back in disgust

Said, "Why do I love her more than you?

Well the answer is a question

Just ask yourself, 'What can I do

To gain my Lord's affection?' "

Love's not where you thought you left it

Who took the last of love and kept it

And caged love in, tried to protect it

And love's not where we thought we left it

Oh, when men become more ladylike

I'll see you in the candlelight

When women come to be like men

Oh, we'll be ashamed to fight again

No jealous God's the only one

Father, Mother, Ghost and Son

Love's unorthodox

Changes all of nature's clocks

To time remaining

Just twenty-four hours

For lovers in training

Bitter, salty, sweet and sour

Love's not where we thought we'd left it

Who took the last of love and kept it

And love's not where we thought we'd left it

Who took the last of love and kept it

Love's not where we thought we'd left it
