Lyrics Kris Kristofferson

Kris Kristofferson

Bad Love Story

Once again you tried to show me

What my eyes refused to see

In the lines between the painful scene we're in

With the silence falling coldly

On a world of make-believe

And the ending that I still don't understand

It's a bad love story

That I've had to learn by heart

'cause I've lived these lines so many times before

And it's a shame the way the same old ending

Still tears me apart

Where the lady still don't love me anymore

I can see the truth before me

Like a mirror on the wall

With a crack or two for every fool I've been

And I see the lady waiting

For her count-down curtain call

And it's looking like the place that I came in

It's a bad love story

That I've had to learn by heart

'cause I've lived these lines so many times before

And it's a shame the way the same old ending

Still tears me apart

Where the lady still don't love me anymore
