Love was washed away with the driftin' tide
The future that lies before me I cannot see
Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising
Oh it's a dirty old shame
Take the blame for a love song
Oh it's a dirty old shame
Lighting up the world for everyone, but not for me
When all you get from love is a love song
For the music to start
Are written with a broken heart
Because the best love songs
When all you get from love is a love song
And it's a dirty old shame
The future I cannot see
That's got you layin' up nights just waitin'
Are written with a broken heart
For the music to start
And now the tears in my eyes are ever blinding
Take the blame for a love song
It's such a dirty old shame when you got to
Take the blame for a love song
Look out, look out
It's such a dirty old shame when you got to
Because the best love songs
Are written with a broken heart
Oh it's a dirty old shame
That's got you layin' up nights just waitin'
When all you get from love is a love song
That's got you layin' up nights just waitin'
For the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame when you got to
It's such a dirty old shame when you got to
As seagulls fly I knew that I was losin'
That's got you layin' up nights just waitin'
When all you get from love is a love song
For the music to start
Take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs
Because the best love songs
