[Verse 1]
I wanna go to bed with arms around me
But wake up on my own
Pretend that I'm still sleeping
Till you go home
I can't look at you this morning
I should probably have a sign
That says "leave right now or quicker"
You've overstayed your time
[Chorus]
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing is safe for me
When I don't believe in love, you're too close to me
That's why you have to leave
[Verse 2]
Maybe I slept peaceful on your shoulder
Your arm warm around my side
But it's different now, it's morning
And I can't face your smile
The second that I feel your safe hands
Reaching out for mine
I slip away and out of sight
You've overstayed your time
[Chorus]
If I don't believe in love, nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing is new for me
Nothing is warm for me and nothing is real for me
[Instrumental bridge]
[Chorus]
If I don't believe in love, nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
When I don't believe in love, nothing is new for me
Nothing is warm for me and nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love, why do you care for me?
When I don't believe in love, nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love, you're getting too close to me
That's why you have to leave, that's why you have to leave
[Outro]
If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love, nothing is left for me
If I don't believe in love, you're too good for me
I wanna go to bed with arms around me
But wake up on my own
Pretend that I'm still sleeping
Till you go home
I can't look at you this morning
I should probably have a sign
That says "leave right now or quicker"
You've overstayed your time
[Chorus]
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing is safe for me
When I don't believe in love, you're too close to me
That's why you have to leave
[Verse 2]
Maybe I slept peaceful on your shoulder
Your arm warm around my side
But it's different now, it's morning
And I can't face your smile
The second that I feel your safe hands
Reaching out for mine
I slip away and out of sight
You've overstayed your time
[Chorus]
If I don't believe in love, nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing is new for me
Nothing is warm for me and nothing is real for me
[Instrumental bridge]
[Chorus]
If I don't believe in love, nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
When I don't believe in love, nothing is new for me
Nothing is warm for me and nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love, why do you care for me?
When I don't believe in love, nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love, you're getting too close to me
That's why you have to leave, that's why you have to leave
[Outro]
If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love, nothing is left for me
If I don't believe in love, you're too good for me
