If You Don't Wanna Love Me

If you don't wanna love me

Then I'll find somebody else who will

Find another kind of thrill

Find another way to fill this loneliness

[Verse 1 - Cowboy Troy)

A married couple with kids and a family pet

He takes for granted that it's all good, and things are set

But she feels no passion in the romance

It's been a year since they had their last slow dance

Even worse her husband treats her like an ornament

Every other week the kids have a tournament

A team meeting or somewhere they gotta be

But her heart's screamin', "Hey what about me?"

Unbeknownst, another hound is in the chicken coop

And he's makin' moves like a player to the hoop

She met him at the gym or was it at the grocery?

It doesn't matter 'cause you know where it's goin' B

'Cause last year, her mister got caught cheatin'

So she figures this is gonna make 'em even

He thought she'd wait like all the times before

Until he found the note she left for him hanging on the door

It read...

[Chorus x 2 - Sarah Buxton] (Cowboy Troy)

If you don't wanna love me

Then I'll find somebody else who will (I'll find somebody else who will)

Find another kind of thrill

Find another way to fill this loneliness

[Verse 2 - Cowboy Troy] (Sarah Buxton)

She's sixteen, callin' home to her mama

Afraid to talk 'cause she scared of all the noise and drama

She's been gone for a week and a half

All she wants is something to eat and a nap

Cause she's a runaway (runaway, runaway)

Sleepin' under bridges and sleepin' in alleyways

Afraid to go the shelter so at night she prays

That hopefully she's gonna see some better days

Meanwhile Mom and Dad are really frantic

When they saw her clothes were gone

You know they really panicked

Thoughts in their mind, "Did she run to the border?"

Or even worse "Will she be a case on Law and Order?"

The silence in her room screams of not feelin' wanted

Of not being good enough it almost seems haunted

All her pain soon will be known

When she leaves her Mom and Dad a message after the tone and says....

[Chorus x 2 - Sarah Buxton] (Cowboy Troy)

If you don't wanna love me

Then I'll find somebody else who will (I'll find somebody else who will)

Find another kind of thrill

Find another way to fill this loneliness

If you really wanna know me

I guess you better show me

Is it real or is it phony?

Just love me or leave me alone

[Chorus until end - Sarah Buxton] (Cowboy Troy)

If you don't wanna love me

Then I'll find somebody else who will (I'll find somebody else who will)

Find another kind of thrill

Find another way to fill this loneliness
