"I'm Not Your Lover" lyrics

"I'm Not Your Lover"

Standing in line at the filling station
Love the smell of the gas
Just waiting
I know I shouldn't breathe it in
But I do anyway

See the lights now that
I'm getting to the city
Drifting in thrift stores I see
Something pretty
I see jacket I'd wear
'Til I gave it to you

I'm not your lover
I'm not your lover anymore

Lilac and dogwood
In the summer air
Kentucky grass wishing
You were there
With your hand on my knee
Put your head on my shoulder
Where you want it to be

I'm not your lover
I'm not your lover anymore

You shake my spine
Until you sublimate it
Pour the wine 'til I can't separate it
From my brain
You're a sign on the highway
Covered in the rain

I'm not your lover
I'm not your lover
I'm not your lover
I'm not your lover anymore
