Willie Nelson - Lost Cause Lyrics

American singer and guitarist

Lost Cause lyrics by Willie Nelson

Your sorry eyes, they cut through the bone
Making it hard to leave you alone
Leaving you here wearing your wounds
Waving your guns at somebody new

Baby, you’re lost
Baby, you’re lost
Baby, you’re a lost cause

Too many people that you used to know
They see you coming, and they see you go
They know your secrets, and you know theirs
This town is crazy, but nobody cares

Baby, you’re lost
Baby, you’re lost
Baby, you’re a lost cause

Tired of fightin’
I’m tired of fightin’
Fightin’ for a lost cause

There’s a place where you are goin’
You ain’t never been before
There’s no one laughing at your back now
No one standing at your door
Is that what you thought love was for?

Baby, you’re lost
Baby, you’re lost
Baby, you’re a lost cause

I’m tired of fightin’
I’m tired of fightin’
Fightin’ for a lost cause
