Alice sits alone on her bed with all her pets,
When she’s feeling low she takes the medicine she gets,
She’d give her life for billy, he won’t give her time of day,
He’s got too many others who would throw themselves away.
Billy is oblivious, and he’s a football star,
And no one’s supposed to know it but it paid for his new car,
He’s the kind of guy who’d wear a big ol’ toothy grin,
As he throws you to the ground and he kicks you in the chin.
And the list continues on,
Like the sun from dusk to dawn,
With every lover shunned along the way,
If you don’t believe it’s true,
Take a look at who loves you,
And you’ll find I’m being honest when I say:
The one you love don’t love you back.
They want someone else.
And if the one you love don’t love you back,
You can only blame yourself.
Travis is a man with his future in the air,
He’s going slowly nowhere but he really doesn’t care.
He thinks the world of Alice and he has since age thirteen,
But Alice will have none of him, her face is seldom seen.
Susan makes her living in a good and honest way,
But she’s hung up on Travis and she’s living day to day.
At one time they dated, but it never quite worked out,
He thought someday maybe, but she never had a doubt.
And the list continues on,
Like the sun from dusk to dawn,
With every lover shunned along the way,
If you don’t believe it’s true,
Take a look at who loves you,
And you’ll find I’m being honest when I say:
The one you love don’t love you back.
They want someone else.
And if the one you love don’t love you back,
Stay with someone else.
