Correct This Age We Live In Lyrics

Lyrics:

I knew the first moment I walked in your door
There was somebody else of that I was sure
Your kiss was as tight as an old miser's tips
A cool polite mouth, no warm melting lips.

And you never could get enough of my love
You'd cry in the dark when we didn't make love
And we loved many times both gentle and rough
But last night for the first time once was enough.

This age we live in is not the old West
Where a man shot his rival and proved himself best.
I smiled and made small talk and sat by his side
I pretended great joy while crumblin' inside.

And you'd only known one love before you met me
While I lost count as years did flee.
I lived things already that you now will start
Sooner or later we had to part.

And sooner it was and I should have known
The earthquakes of youth rock those who are grown
I don't feel ancient.  I don't feel young.
Life's still worth livin'.  There are songs yet unsung.

And you were a rose unfolding to the light
One peddle was I in your flower of life
Our love has faded as Spring comes to the South
But I'll always remember the taste of your mouth.

This age we live in is not the old West
Where a man shot his rival and proved himself best.
I smiled and made small talk and sat by his side
I pretended great joy while crumblin' inside.
