I Don’t Believe in Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye
Searching high and low
The criminal mind, found at the scene of the crime
Handcuffed and blind, I didn't do it
She said she loved me, I guess I never knew
But do we ever, ever really know?
She said she'd meet me on the other side
But I knew right then I'd never find her
[Chorus 1]
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
[Verse 2]
No more nightmares, I've seen them all
From the day I was born, they've haunted my every move
Every open hand's there to push and shove
No time for love, it doesn't matter
She made a difference, I guess she had a way
Of making every night seem bright as day
Now I walk in shadows, never see the light
She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye
I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye
Searching high and low
The criminal mind, found at the scene of the crime
Handcuffed and blind, I didn't do it
She said she loved me, I guess I never knew
But do we ever, ever really know?
She said she'd meet me on the other side
But I knew right then I'd never find her
[Chorus 1]
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
[Verse 2]
No more nightmares, I've seen them all
From the day I was born, they've haunted my every move
Every open hand's there to push and shove
No time for love, it doesn't matter
She made a difference, I guess she had a way
Of making every night seem bright as day
Now I walk in shadows, never see the light
She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye
[Chorus 2]
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I need to forget her face, I see it still
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
No chance for contact
There's no raison d'etre
My only hope is one day I'll forget
The pain of knowing what can never be
With or without love, it's all the same to me
[Chorus 3]
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel, feel
Pain that you feel, feel
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I need to forget her face, I see it still
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
No chance for contact
There's no raison d'etre
My only hope is one day I'll forget
The pain of knowing what can never be
With or without love, it's all the same to me
[Chorus 3]
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel, feel
Pain that you feel, feel
