Lyrics
Lose My Heart to the Blues
Every day (every day) is the same old day
Since you (since you) broke my heart
I keep drinking to keep from fading away
But I'm still falling apart
Now I toss and turn after midnight
I'm paying those heartbreak dues
If I can't have you, I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues
I had one (one) good hearted woman
I played two (two) times her heart
Three friends told me to quit my messing around
But I forgot that part
Now I toss and turn after midnight
I'm paying those heartbreak dues
If I can't have you, I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues
You told me you would love me
As long as I was true
I promised to never make you cry
Then I broke your heart in two
Guitar ride
You told me you would love me
As long as I was true
I promised to never make you cry
Then I broke your heart in two
I had one (one) good hearted woman
I played two (two) times her heart
Three friends told me to quit my messing around
But I forgot that part
Now I toss and turn after midnight
I'm paying those heartbreak dues
If I can't have you, I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues
