Del-Lords - Love Lies Dying by The Del-Lords lyrics

I've seen that look before, but not on you I've heard that tone of voice, but not from you Once upon a time my mama came into my room I still recall the smell of alcohol and her perfume She said, “I've had it son, I'm sorry but I'm through” All this time I thought I was to blame Now I'm losing you the same way How dark this night Our love lies dying How dark this night How far the dawn How dark this night Our love lies dying I'll never know why I needed you And I don't know why I still do Broken home and broken dreams, we're two of a kind Born with the same bad luck, born under the same bad sign Everything about our love was wrong I don't know how it went on so long Or why it still burns so strong What we called love, the world called something else They say you can't love someone if you hate yourself How dark this night Our love lies dying How dark this night How far the dawn How dark this night Our love lies dying I'll never know why I needed you And I don't know why I still do Take me back to our first kiss I could feel the beating of an empty heart; yeah, another misfit And that was enough for us We thought we were born to be together We thought this was love The Winter came right through these walls, but we stayed right here We told each other it was them not us, as our friends disappeared We brought out the worst in us A combination always ready to combust Still it was a mighty love and a powerful lust Either way, the sparks would always fly Either way, I'm not ready to say goodbye How dark this night Our love lies dying How dark this night How far the dawn How dark this night Our love lies dying She's gone, gone, gone, gone --- .
