Bobby Bare

(Tom T. Hall)
Spring could come, you'd never show it
Love could come, you'd never know it
Life has drawn so many tears from your eyes
You've been used then lost the user
You've been branded as a loser
Where did all the sincere people go?
When love is gone it will not return
The river's full of your tears the bridges have been burned
Someone took your four leaf clover all your lucky days are over
That's the way you feel when love is gone.
Nights're long dawn is heartless quiet heartaches in the darkness
How could scars so deep still plainly show
All the old dreams so delicious all the news came so suspicious
Where did all the simple pleasures go.
When love is gone it will not return
The river's full of your tears the bridges have been burned
Someone took your four leaf clover all your lucky days are over
That's the way you feel when love is gone...
