All you get from love is a love song

Like sailing on a sailing ship to nowhere
Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze
As seagulls fly I knew that I was losing
Love was washed away with the drifting tide

Oh it's a dirty old shame when all you get from love is a
love song
That's got you laying up nights just waiting 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 laying up nights just waiting 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 out, look out
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 laying up nights waiting for the music to
start
It's such a dirty old shame when you got to take the blame
for a love song
Cos the best love songs are written with a broken heart

And it's a dirty old shame when all you get from love is
a love song
That's got you laying up nights waiting 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
