"Love In Vain" lyrics

"Love In Vain"

Dreams die hard, the good die young
Some are born to lose, some are born to run
Some drink whiskey and ease the pain
Then there're those like me who love in vain

Some have faith in a promised land
Some hold eternity in the palms of their hands
Some take comfort when it rains
Then there're those like me who love in vain

They say it's better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all
But to love somebody and die the whole night through
To love somebody that don't love you

Some hearts break, some are made of stone
Some hurt for a while and then carry on
Some take time and walk through the pain
Then there're those like me who love in vain

But to love somebody and die the whole night through
To love somebody that don't love you

Dreams die hard, the good die young
Some are born to lose, some are born to run
Some drink whiskey and ease the pain
Then there're those like me who love in vain
Some drink whiskey, ease the pain
Then there're those like me who love in vain
