Lovers Need Lawyers Lyrics by The Good Life

Album Of The Year

2004

I swear to speak the whole truth
Nothing but the truth
Oh, so help me God I wasn't cheating on you
Yeah, I've got a spotty record, but I've been renewed
If you can't believe me, then what's to believe?
Once you lose the trust you lose sincerity
I'm sick and tired of acting sincere
To your accusing eyes and ears
Oh, lovers need lawyers
All that I'm screaming's being held against me
Well, you're judge and jury
So hang me and take me for all that I'm worth
Better or worse
Yeah, I was drinking
Yeah, she was drinking too
Yeah, we made a connection
We came from the same neighborhood
Surely you can't charge me for that
That's merely fact, merely coincidence
So there we were, out last at last call
We took a cab to Iowa for more alcohol
Yeah, we crossed the river, I know
I also went home alone
Oh, lovers need lawyers
Talking in circles but missing the meaning
Of the reason we're fighting
Just want to make the best me that you can
All I am
Take me for all I am worth
Take me for all I am
I could never take another's hand
It's to you I'm condemned
Make the best me that you can
Make the best me that you can
