Cold Hard Facts Of Love

Oh I try to hide my feelings keep my motions in control
The tears out of my eyes and my poor heart out of the cold
But a mocking round in the foggy haze a man victim of
Empty nights and lonely days the cold hard facts of love

Oh the cold hard facts of love are haunting and making me old
Learned about cheatin' and doin' wrong and all the lies that I've told
She taught me how to love laugh and cry like a fool I said goodbye
To love love love then the loser in my soul

[ guitar ]
Lord now ain't it a pity they say it's gotta be
Whiskey and wine for my body and mind and lonesome for company
Singin' the blues to my broken heart cause I know her love is gone
She's taken me back many times before but this time I'm just gone too long

Oh the cold hard facts of love...

She taught me how to love laugh and cry like a fool I said goodbye
To love love love then the loser in my soul
