"All You Get from Love Is a Love Song" Songtext
Like sailin′ on a sailin' ship to nowhere
Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze
As seagulls fly I knew that I was losin′
Love was washed away with the driftin' tide
Oh it's a dirty old shame
When all you get from love is a love song
That′s got you layin′ up nights
Just waitin' 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 (ooh, ooh, ooh)
The future that lies before me I cannot see (look out, look out - the future I cannot see)
Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising (ooh, ooh, ooh)
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 layin' up nights
Just waitin′ 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
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Look out, look out - the future I cannot see
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh it's a dirty old shame
When all you get from love is a love song (all you get from love is a love, love song)
That′s got you layin′ up nights
Just waitin' for the music to start
It′s such a dirty old shame
When you got to take the blame for a love song (got to take the blame for a love, love song)
Because 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 (all you get from love is a love, love song)
That′s got you layin' up nights
Just waitin′ for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame
When you got to take the blame for a love song (got to take the blame for a love, love song)
Because the best love songs
Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze
As seagulls fly I knew that I was losin′
Love was washed away with the driftin' tide
Oh it's a dirty old shame
When all you get from love is a love song
That′s got you layin′ up nights
Just waitin' 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 (ooh, ooh, ooh)
The future that lies before me I cannot see (look out, look out - the future I cannot see)
Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising (ooh, ooh, ooh)
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 layin' up nights
Just waitin′ 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
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Look out, look out - the future I cannot see
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh it's a dirty old shame
When all you get from love is a love song (all you get from love is a love, love song)
That′s got you layin′ up nights
Just waitin' for the music to start
It′s such a dirty old shame
When you got to take the blame for a love song (got to take the blame for a love, love song)
Because 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 (all you get from love is a love, love song)
That′s got you layin' up nights
Just waitin′ for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame
When you got to take the blame for a love song (got to take the blame for a love, love song)
Because the best love songs
