Refreshments - Love in vain lyrics

rate me

Don´t bring up the past it cuts like a knife

The days that we had was the time of my life

But i never let it show and you don´t really wanna know

So don´t ask no questions and i´ll tell no lies

About how i´ve been and why those tired eyes

Can no longer hide the secrets in my mind

Oh oh why oh why won´t it let go after a lifetime of runnin´

Feelin´s still grow

What a waste of love all gone down the drain

Now i´m tellin´ you my life story

It´s sad but it´ s all ´bout a man in pain

And a love in vain

Sometimes you´re gone for months or a year

But then again from outa nowhere

Maybe in the still of the night

Next time at a traffic light

Yeah i never know when the hurt is gonna come

I only know it´s just a matter of time

Before memories are comin´ ´ round

And i´m back on shaky ground

Solo

Now the sky ain´t that blue and the sun don´t shine so bright

Since your leavin´ has changed my livin´

Nowadays my old face ain´t no pleasent sight

I´ve been to places done all kinds of things

To whip out the traces and to break the strings

But all through the years i´ve lied

And i´m still cryin´ inside

Oh oh why oh why won´t it let go after a lifetime of runnin´

Feelin´s still grow

What a waste of love all gone down the drain

Now i´m tellin´ you my life story

It´s sad but it´s all ´bout a man in pain

And a love in vain
