Gregory Porter - Bad Girl Love lyrics

Everything my life has taught me
A love like ours is not supposed to be
Never throw your pearls out to the swine
Leave the bad girls behind you

Bad girl love
I been waiting on that bad girl love
As I wait outside the door
Of a tiny room, she finds herself
Bad girl love
I been waiting on that bad girl's love
I can't hide that she's beside me
At the point of no return

They would ever tell the truth
At saying love you'll be martyr
They would ever tell the truth
At saying love you'll have some pain

You'll stand there and you'll know
When comes the danger
Blows that come, you take
For sake of love
You'll stand there and you'll know
When comes a danger
The blows that come, you take
For sake of love

They would ever tell the truth, oh
And say that love is complicated
They would ever tell the truth, oh
At saying love you'll have some shame

You'll stand there and you'll know
When comes the danger
The blows that come, you take
For sake of love
But still you climb aboard
This lilting ship
Hold on, or lose your grip
For sake of love
