A long time ago, some old man raised my hand
He told me I'd meet someone who'd understand
That love is a treasure to keep
But no one turned up, except in my sleep
I lived in a world that was somewhere
apart And I blinked the blues for the
ache in my heart
What I thought was love in the night Turned
out to be fool's gold in broad daylight
I guess that's the road I had to take
You learn to survive when you feel your heart break You we know,
you lose for love's sake
And slowly you find that your life's
not at stake So tell me no fortunes,
they lead me
astray I don't want to hear what the soothsayers say
Now I'll take what comfort I may From the love songs I sing every day
I guess that's the road I had to take
You learn to survive when you feel your heart
break You we know, you lose for love's sake
And slowly you find that your life's not at stake
So tell me no fortunes,
they lead me astray I don't want to hear what the soothsayers
say Now I'll take what comfort I may
From the love songs I sing every day Every day,
every day,
every day,
every day
