Sittin' alone at a table for two, when she walked in
I was down on my second love,
Swore I'd never do that again
She sat down beside me and tried to explain
That two bad loves don't spoil the whole darn game
The first love lies
The second lover hurts you deep inside
Now that you're free
This love's on me
I thought my life was at the end of its rope
Without true love, there could be no hope
Then she asked if I would stay for the night
She said, everything's gonna be all right
The sun came up the very next day
I knew what she meant when I heard her say
The first love lies
The second lover hurts you deep inside
Now that you're free
This love's on me

This love's on me
This love's on me
I'm gonna love away your misery
Soon you will see
This love's on me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This love's on me
I'm gonna love away your misery
Now that you see
This love's on me
