Always been a sucker for a broken heart   Jesse won't you come back home   Nothing ever turns out the way you think   It's about you, it's about me   It's about everybody's history      It's a sad sad story and the same old song   Whatever seems right always turns out wrong   Mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers   What would other people say      *Chorus* It's about love, it's about hate when you lose your faith   It's about truth, it's about lies that you just can't hide   It's about joy, it's about pain, is there something to gain   It's about black, it's about white   It's everything we learn in life      Wish at times I didn't give a damn   I guess I'm gonna head out west   Trade my old colletion of records and things   Get a new car, get a new guy   Get a new lease on life      Still it's the same old story   And that worn out song   Do we ever really know what's going on   Mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers   What would other people say      Chorus      Doesn't matter anymore what you think I think   I'm gonna believe   Cause I believe I'll fall in love again, in love again      So you think I'm damned before you   Well it's time you give it up   I've had enough of wasted love thrown in my face      Chorus
