Faithless Love Lyrics

Lynn Anderson

Faithless Love
(J. D. Souther)

Faithless love like a river flows.
Raindrops falling on a "broken rose"
Down in some valley where nobody goes.

And the night falls in
Like a cold dark wind.
Faithless love like a river flows.

Faithless love, where did I go wrong
Was it telling stories in a heartbreak song?
Where nobody's right, nobody was wrong.

Faithless love will find you,
And its misery entwine you.
Faithless love, where did I go wrong.

Well I guess I'm standing in the hall of broken dreams;
That's the way it sometimes goes.
And every new love never turns out like it seems;
Guess the feeling comes and goes.

Faithless love like a river flows.
Raindrops falling on a "broken rose"
Down in some valley where nobody goes.

Faithless love has found me,
Thrown its chilly arms around me.
Faithless love like a river flows.
