"Dyed In The Grain" lyrics

"Dyed In The Grain"

You can get far too used to sharing your time
But I'm way past caring about mine
You can accustom yourself to being on your own
But you shouldn't get used to being to alone

For this is no guessing game
I love you to my shame
A love dyed in the grain
Dyed in the grain

But if lovin were easy
We wouldn't be here
Still slamming doors and ending in tears

As if were so low to be to content
We'd rather be cruel although it's not meant

This is no guessing game
I love you to my shame
A love dyed in the grain
Dyed in the grain

On a dark winter's night
I heard this couple up outside
And I was a fool I took revenge just to cover my pride
When love comes by it sweeps you up
It's hard to keep your head above water
And what is love if it's not there to take the mistakes

This is no guessing game
I love you to my shame
A love dyed in the grain
Dyed in the grain

Love you to my shame
Love dyed in the grain
Love dyed in the grain
Dyed in the grain
