Nice Guys Finish Last

As the world turned I think about what I learned As the night dies I see the light behind my cries Love is such a painful game Hearts are left to shame The innocent seems to fade To fade into the grey But don’t lose faith my friend We’re the ones who have hope In the end I gave my heart for everyone to take But before it was all said and done I had to break Every night I mourned All these vows were torn But with every night that I cried I learned what was the truth from the lies Love is such a painful game Hearts are left to shame The innocent seems to fade To fade into the grey But don’t lose faith my friend We’re the ones who have hope In the end This corrupt world just seeks pleasure With no thought of forever When it comes to love He’ll never treat her as a dove He’ll never put his heart in this That’s not love, that’s just a kiss Love is such a painful game Hearts are left to shame The innocent seems to fade To fade into the grey But don’t lose faith my friend We’re the ones who have hope In the end It’s no lie that patience is virtue There’s someone out there for you God gave me the girl of my dreams Hope isn’t as far as it seems Hold on to faith You’ll see it’s never too late Love is such a painful game Hearts are left to shame The innocent seems to fade To fade into the grey But don’t lose faith my friend We’re the ones who have hope In the end As the world turned I think about what I learned As the night dies I see the light behind my cries
