Hard Luck Tale
Saw her downtown today, no light in her eyes nothing to say

She hasn't been the same since he went away

He was this town's sweetheart, every girl's dream he let her catch him when they were 17

Now it hurts he left so easy, 30 years he threw away, when he left he took her dreams

She loved him so long she lost the girl inside, loved him so hard, she lost her heart

Now she's driftin through the days, crawlin through the nights, the nights are so long

It's just another hard luck tale, somebody went away,
ain't no headline story, it happens everyday, just another hard luck tale

Look in the mirror and no one is there nothing makes no sense cause baby you don't care
I can't remember the times before I lay by your side, I'm alone now at night,
Refrain:...Just another hard luck tale...
