Lyrics:

Like sailin' on a sailing ship to nowhere
Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze
As seagulls fly, I knew that I was losing
Love was washed away with the drifting tide

Oh, it's a dirty old shame
When all you get from love is a love song
It's got you layin' up nights
Just waiting for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame
When you've got to take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs
Are written with a broken heart

Now the tears in my eyes are ever blinding (Ooh)
The future that lies before me, I cannot see
(Look at, look at the future I cannot see)
Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising (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
It's got you layin' up nights
Waiting for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame
When you've got to take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs
Are written with a broken heart

Ooh
(Look at, look at the future I cannot see)
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 song)
It's got you layin' up nights
Waiting for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame
When you've got to take the blame for a love song
(Gotta take the blame for a love song)
Because the best love songs
Are written with a broken heart
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 song)
It's got you layin' up nights
Waiting for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame
When you've got to take the blame for a love song
(Gotta take the blame for a love song)
Because the best love songs
Are written with a broken heart
