Gerry Rafferty - Hearts Run Dry lyrics

rate me

Hearts run dry, something happens when two hearts run dry

That you can't explain, no you don't know why, oh no oh no

Love grows cold, meanwhile life goes on and the young grow old

And you've seen too many dreams unfold, oh yeah when hearts run dry.

The setting sun, fades away just like a love that's gone

You remember when two hearts were one, oh yeah, oh yeah

And in the night, you still want someone to hold you tight

But your medicine just won't come right, oh no, when hearts run dry.

I can't love you the way that I used to do, but don't tell me I'm using you, losing you

Through empty days and lonely nights, it's memorys that keep me here with you

There's no getting near to you, and I still don't know what to do, leaving you, loving you.

Each day's the same, you decide to play the waiting game

So you live a lie, but you feel no shame, oh no, oh no.

I can't love you the way that I used to do, but don't tell me I'm using you, losing you

Through empty days and lonely nights, it's memorys that keep me here with you

There's no getting near to you, but I still don't know what to do, leaving you, loving you.

Hearts run dry, something happens when two hearts run dry

That you can't explain, no you don't know why, oh no oh no

Love grows cold, meanwhile life goes on and the young grow old

And you've seen too many dreams unfold, oh yeah when hearts run dry.

whoa-oh, when hearts run dry

whoa-oh, when hearts run dry
