Lyrics
This empty place
Matches my empty heart
Oh, a river flows
Between the banks of our love
And the gray of the sky is the color
Of my happiness
Just because of you
Just because of you
You old heartbreaker
The old matchmaker
You filled my sails with the wind of love
And let me down
And now I don't believe that my ship afloat
Will ever be found
You wore the costume of an honest man
And now my love is shadowed all over this land
Because of you
Just because of you
You old heartbreaker
The old matchmaker
Every day's like the day before
I come and go through the same old dawn
To shed a tear is nothing strange
Nothing returned, nothing gained
And so nothing to look forward to
I feel the heartbreak and think of you
And it took just a kiss
To destroy me like this
Now there's nothing I can say
Because of you
Just because of you
My baby's gone away
Baby's gone away
You old heartbreaker
The old matchmaker
Why did you make my baby go away?
Baby go away
