Always been a sucker for a broken heart

Jesse won't you come back home

Nothing ever turns out the way you think

It's about you, it's about me

It's about everybody's history



It's a sad sad story and the same old song

Whatever seems right always turns out wrong

Mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers

What would other people say



*Chorus* It's about love, it's about hate when you lose your faith

It's about truth, it's about lies that you just can't hide

It's about joy, it's about pain, is there something to gain

It's about black, it's about white

It's everything we learn in life



Wish at times I didn't give a damn

I guess I'm gonna head out west

Trade my old colletion of records and things

Get a new car, get a new guy

Get a new lease on life



Still it's the same old story

And that worn out song

Do we ever really know what's going on

Mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers

What would other people say



Chorus



Doesn't matter anymore what you think I think

I'm gonna believe

Cause I believe I'll fall in love again, in love again



So you think I'm damned before you

Well it's time you give it up

I've had enough of wasted love thrown in my face



Chorus
