Love out of Lemons

I shoulda left you where I found you

I shoulda had some better sense

I got your name right here in tattoo

To remind me of what I did

It was an age-old kind of story

It's happened since the dawn of time

About a man searching for glory

Until he starts to lose his mind

You know you can't squeeze love out of lemons

You can't break a broken heart

You ain't alive unless you're livin'

Until you end up in the dark

I wanna ask you a simple question

But don't you answer if you can't

With the checks your mouth is writing

Do you think they're gonna cash?

I know it all seems kind of harmless

'Cause you've done it all before

But it's never really heartless

Till you just take more and more

You know you can't squeeze love out of lemons

You can't break a broken heart

You ain't alive unless you're livin'

Until you end up in the dark

'Cause we've been down this road twice before

And I told you plain as day

You can't squeeze love out of lemons

And some people they never change

Oh, they never change

You always say you can't squeeze love out of lemons

You can't break a broken heart

You ain't alive unless you're livin'

Until you end up in the dark

'Cause we've been down this road twice before

And I told you plain as day

You can't squeeze love out of lemons

And some people they never change

Oh, they never change
