Lyrics A Lover Like You - Hayes Carll

A Lover Like You

You came a ragin' at my front door
You said, «Hey, I never see you no more»
You broke a window and you climbed on through
I could never be friends with a lover like you
You kissed the chef, he quit the band
Now you’re walkin' around with a ring on your hand
You told me you need it I almost believed it was true
I could never be friends with a lover like you
The station’s buzzin' this room is cold
I gotta get out of here before I get old
I’m withered and I can’t take the view
I could never be friends with a lover like you
My legs are shakin' I need some rest
If you got somethin', get it off of your chest
I came here for quiet, I ended up in a zoo
I could never be friends with a lover like you
You stole my pictures, you changed your face
I don’t know how I ended up in this place
If I had a lawyer I think I’d probably sue
I could never be friends with a lover like you
The doctor called me before the show
He said, «There's some things I needed to know»
I’m getting out of here, what else can I do?
I could never be friends with a lover like you
