Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hotels are made for two-night stays

Checkin' in and out

Meetin' strangers in the lobby

Wakin' up and leavin' town the next day

But love ain't

[Verse 2]

And whiskey's poured for when you're bored

And alone on Friday night

When you wanna lose yourself

And need a place to hide from all the pain

But love ain't

[Chorus]

Love ain't you on a sidewalk

In your new dress all alone

Love ain't you callin' me

'Cause he ain't pickin' up his phone

The way you're talkin' sounds like

He's somebody you should hate

I may not know what love is, girl

But I know what love ain't

[Chorus]

Come over, let me show you what he can't

'Cause he can only show you what love ain't

[Verse 3]

Sad movies are for cryin'

On the couch there in the dark

That sad song, it was written

Just to try and get your heart to break

But love ain't

[Chorus]

Love ain't you on a sidewalk

In your new dress all alone

Love ain't you callin' me

'Cause he ain't pickin' up his phone

The way you're talkin' sounds like

He's somebody you should hate

I may not know what love is, girl

But I know what love ain't

[Chorus]

Come over, let me show you what he can't

'Cause he can only show you what love ain't

[Bridge]

(Love ain't) I wonder what he's doin'

(Love ain't) Feelin' like a fool and

(You can't) Keep lettin' him do it to you

[Chorus]

'Cause love ain't you on a sidewalk

In your new dress all alone

Love ain't you callin' me

'Cause he ain't pickin' up his phone

The way you're talkin' sounds like

He's somebody you should hate

I may not know what love is, girl

But I know what love ain't

I may not know what love is, girl

But I know what love ain't

[Chorus]

Come over, let me show you what he can't

'Cause he can only show you what love ain't

[Outro]

Love ain't (Love ain't, love ain't)

Love ain't
