Love Rusts Lyrics - Starship

Here I am now, somewhere on the highway 

I just checked into some low-rent room 

I call my service back in San Francisco 

Tell my landlord, I'll be home by June 

But what about me, boy, back in California 

What about the blue-eyed girl you call a child? 

You held me for ransom, like some beautiful bandit 

Going down for the third time, drowning in your life 

Love rusts when it rains on romance 

Thunder rolls in on a clear blue day 

We used to shine like the eye of a diamond 

But something happened, the weather changed 

I should have known better, you read just like a road map 

Staying in one place doesn't interest you at all 

Maybe I don't move as fast as I used to 

But youth is something we can't hold on too long 

Love rusts when it rains on romance 

Hailstones heavy on this empty heart 

It crowds the window where I used to watch you 

Down by the shoreline in the dark 

Love rusts when it rains on romance 

Thunder rolls in on a clear blue day 

We used to shine like the eye of a diamond 

But something happened, the weather changed 

Something happened and the weather changed 

Something happened, then the weather changed 

Ooh, I tell you we used to shine 

(How love rusts) 

(We used to shine, how love rusts) 

We used to shine 

Ooh, we used to shine, you know 

(We used to shine, how love rusts) 

(We used to shine, how love rusts) 

(We used to shine, how love rusts) 

(We used to shine, how love rusts)
