From the recording The Roar of the Approaching Night
Lyrics
LOVE GONE WRONG
I dig my hand deep in my pocket
Hoping to find a buck or two
But all I’ve got is a lot of nothing
Exactly like I have with you
I thought I had a love to cherish
I thought I had a love so strong
I thought I had a love for the ages
But all I have is a love gone wrong
A love gone wrong…
I put my heart in a place of trusting
I gave you more than a man should give
And then you tore my heart wide open
This ain’t no way for a good man to live
I thought I had a love to cherish
I thought I had a love so strong
I thought I had a love for the ages
But all I have is a love gone wrong
A love gone wrong…
It all comes down to how we love, girl
Either wrong or right
Now you can choose to love and forgive, girl
Or to hate and fight
It all comes down to how we love, girl
Either good or bad
And when it’s said and done, girl
Will my love be the love that you wish you had?
I put my left foot in front of my right foot
Hoping to lay some tracks of freedom down
I’m busting out baby, screaming and shouting
Gonna drag my ass clean out of this town
I thought I had a love to cherish
I thought I had a love so strong
I thought I had a love for the ages
But all I had was a love gone wrong
I thought I had a love for the ages
But all I had was a love gone wrong
I thought I had a love for the ages
But all I had was a love gone wrong
I thought I had a love for the ages
But all I had was a love gone wrong
A love gone wrong…
A love gone wrong…
A love gone wrong…
A love gone wrong…
