Love on the Side Lyrics by James Gillespie

The Death Of A Troubadour

2022

[Verse 1]
I've been waitin' on my future
Waitin' for the love to come along
I was never, ever worried that it might be with someone wrong
I opened up my heart, let her in my life
Hopin' that tomorrow will bring us new light
But when she goes to sleep and closes her eyes
It's not me that she's lyin' beside
[Chorus]
Somethin' 'bout the way you move
Holds me like no one else
Somethin' 'bout your hair and your shoes
I forget about everyone e-e-e-else
I'll try, yes, I'll try to be a piece of love on the side
Well, baby, if that's right for you, you're not right for me
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
Ah-hh
Oh-oh-oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Listen
People told me I was stupid and Cupid shot somebody else
But if you only get one arrow in life, I will take the bow myself
I opened up my heart, let her in my bed
Told her that one day, we both will be wed
When the phone rings, she can't say no
Well, I beg her this time, not to go
[Chorus]
Somethin' 'bout the way you move
Holds me like no one else
Somethin' 'bout your hair and your shoes
I forget about everyone e-e-e-else
I'll try, yes, I'll try to be a piece of love on the side
Well baby, if that's right for you, you're not right for me
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh) Oh
You're not right for me
(Ah-ah)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh) Yeah
[Chorus]
Somethin' 'bout the way you move
Holds me like no one else
Somethin' 'bout your hair and your shoes
I forget about everyone e-e-e-else
I've tried, yes, I've tried to be a piece of love on the side
Well baby, if that's right for you, you're not right for me
[Post-Chorus]
You're not right for me
Not right for me
Not right for me
