Took out my old watch
To see what time it was
Sun hung red above me
As I rolled up my ***** sleeves

You took to loving her
Like a cat does to water
Searing old memories
That now only bother

And all of these mistakes
Make your earth seem to quake
And when you up and left
With your sack on your back
You promised me
That you didn't have nothing to lose

Oh' nothing to lose
You said with the sun on your back

Oh nothing to lose
You can try but you can't get it all back

Oh nothing to lose
You said with the sun on your back

Love ain't a game
Of winners and losers
Love ain't for fame
And fought in the sewers
Love is two drifting pieces
Reaching for the same reason

While other lives drift
On through the dawn
Each shifting season
Presents itself as a gift
