Could have been a train, a boat or a car
And there's no way of guessing
Just how far it takes until you know when you're goneIt's hard and it's sad when you're dancing with sin
Face to face with the harm you bring
You can't recall when you were somebody's kingLove's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
When the winds blow
Love has abandoned your heartThe playground's a desert with nothing to see
It's battered and treasure-less with vague memories
You hold your head like a boy who never dreamsLove's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
When the winds blow
Love has abandoned your heartShe sees a window and strangers eyes
With more compassion in all his guilty tries
Then your cold caress in hard nightsWhy can't we struggle, wander and cry
A thousand tears for something good?
And you don't care for her quite like you couldLove's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
And I think she knows
When love has abandoned your heartLove's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
When the winds blow
Love has abandoned your heart
