Love In Vain Lyrics & Chords By The Refreshments

Don't bring up the past it cuts like a knife
The days that we had was the time of my life
But i never let it show and you don't really wanna know
So don't ask no questions and i'll tell no lies
About how i've been and why those tired eyes
Can no longer hide the secrets in my mind
Oh oh why oh why won't it let go after a lifetime of runnin'
Feelin's still grow
What a waste of love all gone down the drain
Now i'm tellin' you my life story
It's sad but it' s all 'bout a man in pain
And a love in vain
Sometimes you're gone for months or a year
But then again from outa nowhere
Maybe in the still of the night
Next time at a traffic light
Yeah i never know when the hurt is gonna come
I only know it's just a matter of time
Before memories are comin' ' round
And i'm back on shaky ground
Solo
Now the sky ain't that blue and the sun don't shine so bright
Since your leavin' has changed my livin'
Nowadays my old face ain't no pleasent sight
I've been to places done all kinds of things
To whip out the traces and to break the strings
But all through the years i've lied
And i'm still cryin' inside
Oh oh why oh why won't it let go after a lifetime of runnin'
Feelin's still grow
What a waste of love all gone down the drain
Now i'm tellin' you my life story
It's sad but it's all 'bout a man in pain
And a love in vain
