Lover's Cross Lyrics


Melanie Safka Lover's Cross

They all said it was bound to happen,

Was just a matter of time

Now I've come to my decision

And it's one fo the painful kind

Oh it seems that you wanted a martyr

Just a regular girl wouldn't do

Now, baby, I can't hang upon a lover's cross for you

I really got to hand it to you

Boy you really tried

But for everytime that we spent laughing,

There were two times that I cried

Cause I never was much of a martyr before

And I ain't gonna start nothing new

Oh, baby, I can't hang upon a lover's cross for you

Tables are meant for turning

And people are bound to change

Bridges are meant for burning

When people in memories are't one and the same

Still I hope that you can find another

Who could take what I could not

She would have to be a super girl

Or maybe a Joan of Arc

Now, I never was much of a martyr before

And I ain't gonna start nothing new

Oh, baby, I can't hang upon a lover's cross for you

The Tables are meant for turning

And people are bound to change

Bridges are meant for burning

When people in memories are't one and the same

Still I hope that you can find another

Who could take what I could not

She would have to be a super girl

Or maybe a Joan of Arc

Now, I never was much of a martyr before

And I ain't gonna start nothing new

Oh, baby, I can't hang upon a lover's cross for

I won't hang upon a lover's cross

I can't hang upon a lover's cross for you
