You're not who you used to be, or at least not to me
A ghost on a movie screen is what you seem
Now you're the one to let the sun fall down
Like a stone in a river
You steal the blood inside of me I can't bleed

This is a lovesong for the loveless and the hopeless
You can be certain that I'm with you when I sing
This is a lovesong for the desperate and the lonely
You could have nothing but you'll still have me

Gone like the sound of your voice or a passing minute
Blown like your hair in the breeze
You are the one to let our star fall down like a stone in a river
You stole the life inside of me I can't breathe

This is a lovesong for the loveless and the hopeless
You can be certain that I'm with you when I sing
This is a lovesong for the desperate and the lonely
You could have nothing but you'll still have me

There's a part of me that dies when you turn away your eyes
I'm alive but not inside
And you know all I wanted was your love,
But you left me high and dry
You're the part of me that died my darling

Now that I'm dead to you dear,
You can slip those bullets back in your lips where they seethe
You were the one to gun our love straight down
Like a stone in a river
You shot your favorite enemy
Watch me bleed

This is a lovesong for the loveless and the hopeless
You can be certain that I'm with you when I sing
This is a lovesong for the desperate and the lonely
You could have nothing but you'll still have me
