"All In Vain" lyrics - RICK WAKEMAN

RICK WAKEMAN
"All In Vain"

The open book
The telephone
The tangled line
The broken bone
The monkey man
The golden locks
Forget me not
The money box

Please don't break my heart again
I looked for all
But all in vain

The willing crew
The even keel
The sharpened knife
The grinding wheel
The jealous wife
The binding trust
Forget me not
The cut and thrust

You tore my heart out in the rain
I looked for all
But all in vain
A damaged heart can feel no pain
I looked for all
But all in vain

The miner's luck
The mother lode
The gambling man
The master code
The knowing more
The caring less
Forget me not
The emptiness

We took the vows but few remain
I looked for all
But all in vain
Please don't break my heart again
I looked for all
But all in vain
You tore my heart out in the rain
I looked for all
But all in vain
Please don't break my heart again
I looked for all
But all in vain
