Look down on me if you want to
Count me out, but don't count long
I've lost my taste for love before
It goes away, but it don't stay gone
This old heart is gonna rise again
What a bad love can break,
a good love can mend
So this old heart is gonna rise again
I'll cry till I'm all out of teardrops
I'll hurt till I'm all out of pain
Then I'll wait for the first love
to come down the track
Like a hobo waiting for a train
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
What a bad love can break,
a good love can mend
So this old heart is gonna rise again
You may wonder just
what keeps me going,
It's the true love that's
waiting down the line.
I know every heartbreak
is one more behind me,
True love's getting closer all the time.
This old heart is gonna rise again,
This old heart is gonna rise again,
What a bad love can break,
a good love can mend
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
What a bad love can break,
a good love can mend
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
What a bad love can break,
a good love can mend
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
This old heart is gonna rise again
What a bad love can break
A good love can mend
This old heart is gonna rise again
