"Our Love Is A Dud" lyrics - PATTY GRIFFIN

I guess by now, you would have said
The words that I've been waiting to hear
I guess it is just what it is, and it's a dud
Just enough hope in the middle of hell
Just enough rope to go hanging myself
I'm going broke buying new shoes
And wishing that I got attention from you
And the funny thing is, you don't even know
The dance that I do, the lengths that I go
A long time ago, my pride came falling down with a thud

It's a dud, it's a dud, it's a dud
Our love is a dud

There's all kinds of things I didn't notice till now
You drink like a fish, you eat like a cow
It's getting harder and harder for me now
To think of your charms
Like how there's a pile up of Maxim magazines
On the back of your toilet, that's every girl's dream
A man such as this, a picturesque scene, on your throne
And the funny thing is, you don't even know
The dance that I do, the lengths that I go
Are you a narcissistic nightmare, or just a dumb stud

It's a dud, it's a dud, it's a dud
Our love is a dud

I won't take a shot, even though I could
I want you to think it won't do any good
Because the question will still remain, what am I doing here
Over and over, banging my head
Afraid I don't know what you do instead
So I asked myself and here's what I said, is this love
And the funny thing is, you don't even know
You don't even care, as soon as I go
You'll find someone else a little more skilled, at cracking a Bud

It's a dud, it's a dud, it's a dud
Our love is a dud
