Love Rusts

Here I am now, somewhere on the highway
 I just checked into some low-rent room
 I call my service back in san francisco
 Tell my landlord, I'll be home by june
 But what about me, boy, back in california
 What about the blue-eyed girl you call a child
 You held me for ransom, like some beautiful bandit
 Going down for the third time, drowning in your life
 Chorus:
 Love rusts when it rains on romance
 Thunder rolls in on a clear blue day
 We used to shine like the eye of a diamond
 But something happened, the weather changed
 I should have known better, you read just like a road map
 Staying in one place doesn't interest you at all
 Maybe I don't move as fast as I used to
 But youth is something we can't hold on too long
 Love rusts when it rains on romance
 Hailstones heavy on this empty heart
 It crowds the window where I used to watch you
 Down by the shoreline in the dark
 Love rusts when it rains on romance
 Thunder rolls in on a clear blue day
 We used to shine like the eye of a diamond
 But something happened, the weather changed
 Something happened and the weather changed
 Something happened, then the weather changed
 Ooh, I tell you we used to shine (how love rusts)
 (we used to shine, how love rusts)
 We used to shine
 Ooh, we used to shine, you know
 (we used to shine, how love rusts, we used to shine, how love rusts)
 (we used to shine, how love rusts, we used to shine, how love rusts)
