Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She kept a locket and a promise, said she'll love him till she dies
But she was spotted in the garden wearing silk on a summer night
Kept a picture of her mister in that locket 'round her throat
But at the motel, she had wrote down a name that was not her own
[PreChorus]
Imagine the look when she walked in
Darling, the walls are paper thin
Heard every word through the door
We know that you're a—
[Chorus]
Why do they call it love when it sounds like a mayday?
Could somebody save me? Whoa
Honey, I'm burning up, and I know what you're saying
I wasn't made for this, whoa
Whoa
I wasn't made for this
[Verse 2]
Who would've thought it? "What a harlot," thought the bellman in his head
As he carried someone married's handbag to a bachelor's bed
As he was leaving, heard her screaming and a pounding on the wall
"What an affair," said the concierge as a banging filled the hall
[PreChorus]
Imagine the look when she walked in
Darling, the walls are paper thin
Heard every word through the door
We know that you're a—
[Chorus]
Why do they call it love when it sounds like a mayday?
Could somebody save me? Whoa
Honey, I'm burning up, and I know what you're saying
I wasn't made for this
Whoa
I wasn't made for this, whoa
Whoa
I wasn't made for this, whoa
[Bridge]
She kept a locket and a promise, said she'll love him till she dies
"What a crime scene," said the police, she stopped loving him that night
Said she'll love him till she dies, she'll stop loving him after tonight
Said she'll love him till she dies, she'll stop loving him after tonight
[Chorus]
Why do they call it love when it sounds like a mayday?
Could somebody save me? Whoa
Honey, I'm burning up, and I know what you're saying
I wasn't made for this
