Steve Earle — Hopeless Romantics

[Verse] You can love most of the people most of the time Now and again, if you're looking, I'm sure you will find Someone who's helplessly hoping someday they'll finally find the one Hopeless romantics keep hoping that someday will come [Verse] Used to be you could be sure that a warrior was true Nowadays everyone knows that it's cool to be blue Constantly circling close to the flame and then stopping on a dime Hopeless romantics will go down in flames every time [Chorus] Hopeless romantics drop everything and run When they find a broken heart Always afraid that they're missing someone With time on their hands and a missing part [Verse] So one of these night when you're sitting at home all alone And you've finally admitted you're lonely right down to the bone You might as well get on out in it 'cause you've got everything to lose And hopeless romantics are always at home with the blues And a broken heart Find the missing part Hopeless romantics are usually hopelessly true
