I'd Rather Loan You Out

I'm alone while you're somewhere with some friend of yours

I'd find you but you'd let me down I know

It hurts to love so much and not be loved at all

But I'd rather loan you out than let you go

I'd rather be with you now and then than to know I'd never feel your lips again

My dreams are gone but I still want you so and I'd rather loan you out than let you go

[ steel ]

At least I'll always know that you'll love me once

Even though they stood in line to tell me no

If things with us can never be the way they were

Then I'd rather loan you out than let you go

I'd rather be with you...
