Riding high on nothing I've always been a lucky man I've seen the ways of the useless All the drams, hopes and all the plans I've seen the sunset Someone's fate on the line I've seen them fight and claw their way I've seen them left behind But it was all for nothing when I met you Chorus Burned by love I was caught in the fire Burned by love Taken in by desire I was burned by love I've seen the passion I've watched them dig for gold I've seen them kill for pleasure Waste their time growing old But it was all for nothing when I met you Repeat chorus But it was all for nothing when I met you Repeat chorus
