Captain Flapjack - Poltics of Love Lyrics

I guess things didn't turn out quite the way we planned
I couldn't be your lover, I could not be your man
We did not realize that you and I could never be a thing
Mismatched lovers who would only hurt each other
We just didn't understand

It's the politics of love, the politics of love

I know it ain't cool the way that things went down
I looked like a cool and felt just like a clown
With reckless love there are always casualties
Hearts get in the way
Goolish lovers don't only hurt each other
It's not what they had planned

But it's the politics of love, the politics of love

She said she loved me as if that meant anything at all
Love is more than what you say or feel, love is what you do
And if you treat somebody bad, they ain't gonna stick around
Not sure what part about this
You don't quite understand

It's the politics of love, the politics of love

Some people seem to take all they can steal
Fill up their bags and go, before it gets too real
But then they never even know it's name
Foolish lovers give all their hearts in vain

I guess things didn't turn out quite the way we planned
I couldn't be your lover, I could not be your man
Now we realize that you and I, can never be a thing

Mismatched lovers, who would only hurt each other, now we understand

It's the politics of love
Politics of love
Politics of love
Politics of love
