Bruce Cockburn - Different When It Comes to You Lyrics

She said she wanted me
I had to let her know
It was never meant to be
And she had to let it go
She was pissed and hurting but
What was I supposed to do?
I did not love her
But it's different when it comes to you

Lamentations everywhere
All the covers turned to blue
Desperation laid her bare
She told me everything I could do
She told herself a story
That flat out wasn't true
She made me feel sorry

But it's different when it comes to you

I don't want to go home tonight
I wanna turn loose my lust
I want you to squeeze me tight
Do the things that we discussed
I'll be my broken self
The zero hidden from your view
I don't usually do that
But it's different when it comes to you

I didn't know I could do that
But it's different when it comes to you
