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 gone

It'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 king

Love's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
When the winds blow
Love has abandoned your heart

The 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 dreams

Love's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart

When the winds blow
Love has abandoned your heart

She sees a window and strangers eyes
With more compassion in all his guilty tries
Then your cold caress in hard nights

Why can't we struggle, wander and cry
A thousand tears for something good?
And you don't care for her quite like you could

Love's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
And I think she knows
When love has abandoned your heart

Love's abandoned, love's abandoned
Love's abandoned your heart
When the winds blow
Love has abandoned your heart
