Words of Love

[Verse 1]
It was early days, we were seventeen
We were of an age, you know what I mean
Just a couple kids and perhaps it's true
That it's not your fault, all I had was you
It was a mistake, just a bit of fun
When I saw your face, I knew what you'd done
Now you're standing here after all this time
Said the punishment doesn't fit the crime
Oh

[Chorus]
But these words of love, don't mean anything
The long years apart, dont change anything
Tears in your eyes, don't prove anything
And oh

[Verse 2]
There were promises that I took to heart
Whether at your side or a world apart
When I went away, I was coming back
But you crumbled and stumbled off the track
Did you have a drink? Smoked a cheap cigar?
That's not what you do, that's not who you are
You regretted it and you regret it now
Yeah I bet you do, Yeah I bet you do
Oh

[Chorus]
But these words of love, don't mean anything
The long years apart, dont change anything
Tears in your eyes, don't prove anything
And oh

[Bridge]
It can't be gone from you
How can it fade so fast?
It can't be lost from you
Now I am lost
Now I am lost
Oh

[Chorus]
But these words of love, don't mean anything
The long years apart, dont change anything
Tears in your eyes, don't prove anything
And oh
