The Civil Wars
Sour Times
[Verse 1: Joy Williams]
To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now

[Chorus: Joy Williams]
'Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

[Verse 2: John Paul White]
Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows, no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

[Bridge: Joy Williams with John Paul White]
Oh, who am I, what and why
'Cause all I have left is these memories of yesterday
Oh, these sour times
[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

[Verse 3: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
After time, the bitter taste
Of innocence, descent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries you learned disguised revolve
Circumstance will decide

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
