Like sailin' on a sailin' ship to nowhere
Love took over my heart
like an ocean breeze
As seagulls fly I knew
that I was losin'
Love was washed away
with the driftin' tide
Oh it's a dirty old shame
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
take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs are written
with a broken heart
And now the tears in my eyes
are ever blinding
The future that lies before me
I cannot see
Although tomorrow
I know the sun is rising
Lighting up the world for everyone
but not for me
Oh it's a dirty old shame
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
take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs are written
With a broken heart
look at look at
the future I cannot see
Oh it's a dirty old shame
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
Take the blame for a love song
Got to take the blame
for an old love song
Because the best love songs
are written
With a broken heart
Oh it's a dirty old shame
When all you get
from love is a love song
That's got you layin' up nights
just waitin'
For the music to start
Oh it's a dirty old shame
Got to take the blame
for a love song
