New West - Good Love After Bad lyrics

Travelling down this dusty road

Taking some time to be alone

You see, I was given the old heave-ho, adiós by telephone

She said we had some good times

And that I should get on with my life

She was busy making plans to be someone else's wife

CHORUS:

I've been throwing good love after bad love

Throwing diamonds after pearls

Throwing all my hopes and all my dreams

Into someone else's girl

Well, I must have been mistaken

Thinking we were even friends

Throwing good love after bad love once again

You know it hit me like a ton of bricks

She really knocked me to the floor

Cos my heart's in her bag of tricks

With the key to my front door

Guess I had it coming

When you're in love you're unaware

I never had to pick her up

She always met me there

(CHORUS)

I guess she was looking for some part-time recreation

Another lesson in this old heart's education

Well, I must have been mistaken

Thinking we were even friends

Throwing good love after bad love once again
