I'm not the kind to cry on a dime - Still I've had my thoughts I've seen movies before - Sat hopeful in the dark I've seen books at the store - Sweet Harlequin romance Book ends, lights go on - love can't stand a chance Can it be the truth? There is no love Can it be there is no love? In love, death do you part - Changes one fine day Dear dad married again before my voice had changed Love dies, illusion remains - I hear top forty songs Lone housewives sing to the radio - Wonder what went wrong Can it be the truth? There is no love Can it be there is no love? I'm not the kind to cry on a dime - Still I've had my thoughts I've seen movies before - Sat hopeful in the dark I've seen books at the store - Sweet, sweet Harlequin romance Book ends, lights go on - And my love can't stand a chance I guess I'm not quite as naïve as I used to be Just can't always believe everything you see Still I sit in the dark watch the film unroll Gotta have a sliver of hope in this cold dark world Can it be the truth? There is no love Can it be there is no love?
