Red Diesel - The Love You Sold

Red Diesel - The Love You Sold

I gave you my heart, and my name
you took it all away for the fame
You said you loved me, but that was just a game
now I'm broken hearted and in shame - the love you sold

I remember the day, you said you'd leave
But now I'm left here, with just your memory
You said forever, but forever's come and gone
but I'm still here, singin' the same old song - the love you sold

You said you needed me, but it was just a lie
You needed someone else, to help you get by
You said you loved me, but it was just a play
Now I'm left here, broken hearted to this day - the love you sold

I tried to hold on, but it was all in vain
You were already gone, I was left in pain
You took my love, and sold it away
And now I'm left here with nothing more to say - the love you sold

I gave you everything, but it wasn't enough
You wanted more, and you took it from me rough
You said you loved me, but it was just a ruse
Now I'm left here, singin the blues - the love you sold

So if you see me cryin', it's just tears
but i wasted so many of my years
I'll keep the singin' the blues, till the day I die
cause you sold me out and drove away goodbye - the love you sold
the love you sold.
