Rhett Miller - If It's Not Love Lyrics

When I laid my eyes on you I felt a fundamental change
I was a concrete jungle in summer, I was desert aching for rain
Now I tried to tell you that I was no good from the start
But when you opened up your front door I handed you my heart

If it's not love then what is this? What is this?
If you're not gonna be the one you're gonna be the one I miss
If it's not love, if it's not love

Now the whole situation went to hell an hour late
Are you on the side of reason or is your heart made out of hate?
This is the other side of leaving from what I've seen so many times
You make a great big deal out of nothing and then you cut me down to size

If it's not love what is this? What is this?
If you're not gonna be the one you're gonna be the one I miss
If it's not love, if it's not love

I'm always the one who runs but this time I'm the crying one

Now my bad reputation is shot and you're to blame
I'm the loser in the corner and I'm whispering your name

If it's not love what is this? What is this?
If you're not gonna be the one you're gonna be the one I miss

If it's not love what is this? What is this?
If you're not gonna be the one you're gonna be the one I miss
If it's not love, if it's not love
