Lyrics

If I could make money from misery
If I could make a buck on bad luck
If I had a dime each time
You broke this heart of mine
Well I'd say that things are looking up

If I couldn't find you when I got lost
If I didn't land back on my feet when I got dropped
If all that I could claim
Was the losers hall of fame
I won't complain cause that'd be good enough

But if I couldn't love you
Then where would I be
I could be the richest man on earth
And live a life of poverty
Heartache is easy
Misery nothing new
But who's to say I'd live one day
If I couldn't love you

If all I ever tasted was the bitterness of defeat
If I had the words but couldn't speak
If all I got was pain
Every time I heard your name
I wouldn't hesitate to do it all again

But if I couldn't love you
Then where would I be
I could be the richest man on earth
And still live a life of poverty
Heartache is easy
Misery nothing new
But who's to say I'd live one day
If I couldn't love you

A lifetime's a long time but I know this is true
A minute would last forever

if I couldn't love you
Then where would I be
I could be the richest man on earth
And live a life of poverty
Heartache is easy
Misery nothing new
But who's to say I'd live one day
If I couldn't love you
