"Why Should We Try Anymore" lyrics - WAYLON JENNINGS

What's the use to deny we've been living a lie
That we should have admited before
We were just victims of a half hearted love
So why should we try anymore.

The vows that we make are only to break
We drift like a wave from the shore
The kisses we steal we know are not real
So why should we try anymore.

[Instrumental]

The dreams that we knew can never come true
They're gone to return no more
False love like ours fades with the flowers
So why should we try anymore.

Our story so old, again has been told
In the past, let's close the door
And smile, don't regret but live and forget
There's no use to try anymore.

Why should we try anymore...
