Love to Be Cruel for
[Verse 1: Lori McKenna]
We throw away chipped plates, we don't drink too much
If the moon's waiting on two lovers, hope it ain't waiting on us
We don't say "Good morning," we don't whisper "Good night"
Books placed on a bedside table, and we turn out the light
[Chorus: Lori McKenna & Mark Erelli]
Nobody's fighting
Nobody wants to win
Nobody's slamming any doors
Remember when we had love to be cruel for
[Verse 2: Mark Erelli]
Don't raise our voices, don't stay up all night crying
But it's a fine damn line between being dead and dying
The words don't hurt no more, no, they're barely spoken
We've done everything that we can do, broke everything broken
[Chorus: Lori McKenna & Mark Erelli]
Nobody's fighting
Nobody wants to win
Nobody's slamming any doors
Remember when we had love to be cruel for
[Interlude: Lori McKenna & Mark Erelli]
Oh, oh
Oh
[Bridge: Lori McKenna & Mark Erelli]
We all drive by houses with just one TV on
And imagine the life inside being better than our own
[Chorus 2: Lori McKenna & Mark Erelli]
Nobody's fighting
Nobody wants to win
Nobody's slamming any doors
Remember when we had love
Remember we had love
Remember when we had love to be cruel for
For
For
