Hank Williams, Jr. and Ray Price - I Lost the Only Love I Knew

You ask me why my heart's so sad,
And why the teardrops fill my eyes,
A heart can't sing that's filled with pain,
How can it laugh when it cries.

I saw my dreams all fade and die,
Like castles in the blue,
Each dawn will bring more tears and pain,
I've lost the only love I knew.

Oh, life for me is useless now,
It seems so empty and blue,
There's no more use to try again,
I fail in everything I do.

It's hard to know you'll never have,
The one you love so true,
While the world's asleep, I'll lay and cry,
I've lost the only love I knew.
