Gordon Lightfoot - Can't Depend On Love Lyrics
I spent most of my life outside in the drivin' rain
I was only trying to get my with some of life's amenities
Well nothin's free
I got more than I bargained for
Now it's plain to see
It took most of my time to do what never was done
I was on the outside of an inside kind of love that now is gone
Come right or wrong
It was laid to rest that way
I hate to be unkind
Pretending is for strangers who don't know you
I spent most of my life outside in the drivin' rain
I was in some one-horse town just waitin' for a plane to take me back
Now where's that at
Knowin' I'm so free
I can't depend on love to defend me
I got more than I bargained for
Now it's plain to see
I can't depend on love to defend me

Gordon Lightfoot Can't Depend On Love Comments
I never had a girlfriend all those years I listened to Lightfoot. it sure made me feel like I was missing out big time. it perhaps made me put them on pedestals though
It's hard to cross the barrier from pedestal to friend, to lover, to friend ... It's a delicate dance in a way. In the end the deep friend is the better way to proceed and if you it works you get commitment that last a lifetime. Lightfoot puts that into his songs I think.
this kind of music just made me more of a hopeless romantic than I already was
pure class.
"On the outside of an inside kind of love"
