Lover's Cross

Lyrics

They all said it was bound to happen
 Was as just a matter of time
 Now I've come to my decision
 And it's one of the painful kind
 Well, it seems that you wanted a martyr
 Just a regular girl wouldn't do
 Now baby, I can't hang on a lover's cross for you
 I really got to hand it to you
 Boy you really tried
 But for every time 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 on a lover's cross for you
 Tables are meant for turning
 And people are bound to change
 Bridges are meant for burning
 When people and memories aren'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 supergirl
 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 on a lover's cross for you
 I won't hang upon a lover's cross for you, 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 and memories aren'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 supergirl
 Or maybe a Joan of Arc
 Now I never was much of a martyr before
 And I ain't gonna start nothing new
 No baby, I can't hang on a lover's cross for
 I won't hang upon a lover's cross, no baby
 I can't hang upon a lover's cross for you
