Hell Bent of a Heartache - Guy Clark

Ain't love funny

Ain't love strange

I say love is a dangerous game

Shows no mercy

Has no rules

All the same for the kings and fools

And I'm

Hell bent on a heartache

I should know better

But I guess I don't

I keep on learning the hard way

Every time I turn around

I make the same mistake

'Cause I'm

Hell bent on a heartache

Hell bent on a heartache

Seems I'm always

Getting burned

Just you wait until the table is turned

Love's a gamble

Love's a curse

Love's a b**ch

But it could be worse

'Cause I'm

Hell bent on a heartache

I know better

But I guess I don't

I keep on learning the hard way

Every time I turn around

I make the same mistake

'Cause I'm

Hell bent on a heartache

Hell bent on a heartache

Don't get me wrong

I believe in love

Sometimes that's just not enough

'Cause I'm

Hell bent on a heartache

I should know better

But I guess I don't

I keep on learning the hard way

Every time I turn around

I make the same mistake

Ooh I'm

Hell bent on a heartache

Hell bent on a heartache
