I’ve been down in Dallas
Locked up in jail deep in Tennessee
There ain’t no pain like the pain of a broken heart
Hanging out for everyone to see
Every now and then I taste the pain
Drop my head slowly take a breath
The tears sooth me and I move along
But the face of this love brings the kiss of death
But love can move mountains
Love can calm a raging sea
But love can cripple a poor heart
But that’s just the way
The way things have to be
Sometimes I look on love
Wonder how things ever got this bad
The lessons I’ve learned will carry on
Both the beautiful on happy and sad
But love can move mountains
Love can calm a raging sea
But love can cripple a poor heart
But that’s just the way
The way things have to be
You might find love one day
But then again
It might not come your way
I guess it’s like all those old folks say
That’s just the way
The way things have to be
Yes that’s just the way
The way things have to be
