Not My Lover

歌词

[Verse 1] You found a note beneath the passenger seat A stranger’s name and a half-truth incomplete You built a case from a receipt and a lie But I was working late beneath fluorescent sky [Pre-Chorus] Don’t turn a question into a loaded gun You know the truth before the trial has begun [Chorus] That girl is not my lover Don’t put her name on me She’s only someone’s sister From an old company That girl is not my lover You’re seeing what you fear I’m standing right beside you I’ve been honest all year [Verse 2] The photograph was taken at a crowded show A dozen people in the frame you never know You read my silence like a confession signed But every missing minute has an ordinary why [Pre-Chorus] Don’t let suspicion write the ending of our lives A crooked little rumor doesn’t make it right [Chorus] That girl is not my lover Don’t put her name on me She’s only someone’s sister From an old company That girl is not my lover You’re seeing what you fear I’m standing right beside you I’ve been honest all year [Bridge] Ask me straight, I’ll answer clean No hidden room, no in-between Take my hand and check the facts Love can’t breathe beneath attacks [Final Chorus] That girl is not my lover Don’t put her name on me She’s only someone’s sister From an old company That girl is not my lover Let the evidence appear I’m standing right beside you And I’m still right here [Outro] Not my lover No, not my lover Read the truth between the lines Not my lover
