Love in Vain Ray Wylie Hubbard

[Verse 1]
Dreams die hard, the good die young
Some are born to lose, some are born to run
Some drink whiskey and ease the pain
Then there're those like me who love in vain

[Verse 2]
Some have faith in a promised land
Some hold eternity in the palms of their hands
Some take comfort when it rains
Then there're those like me who love in vain

[Chorus]
They say it's better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all
But to love somebody and die the whole night through
To love somebody that don't love you

[Verse 3]
Some hearts break, some are made of stone
Some hurt for a while and then carry on
Some take time and walk through the pain
Then there're those like me who love in vain

[Chorus]
But to love somebody and die the whole night through
To love somebody that don't love you
