Created by musician Jim Croce
a lovers cross would be defined as a boyfriend or a girlfriend hanging themselves on an emotional/mental Crucifix for their significant other. Dealing with the pain they're put through for the greater good, thus making themselves a martyr. "Yes, I really got to hand it to you
'Cause girl you really tried But for every time that we spent laughin' There were two times that I cried And you were tryin' to make me your martyr And that's the one thing I just couldn't do 'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you" Jake: why did you and Mary break up? Jack: She had me on a lovers cross, and it got unbearable. |
