Lyrics
When love goes wrong, nothing goes right.
The one thing I know
When love goes wrong, a man takes flight
And women get a petty hope.
The sun don't beam,
The sun don't shine,
The tide don't even flow.
A clock won't strike,
A match won't light,
When love goes wrong, nothing goes right.
The blues all gather 'round you
and day is dark as night.
A man is fit to live with
and a woman's a sorry sight.
A woman's a fright, a terrible sight
A man goes out, gets high as a kite,
Love is something you just can't fight
You can't fight it, honey you can't fight it
When love goes wrong, nothing.
No bars, honey just stand by and hold
Nothing goes right.
It's like we said
You're better off dead
When love has lost it's glow.
So take this down in black and white,
When love goes wrong, nothing goes right.
