[Intro]
  

[Verse 1]
             
If heartaches 

        
brought fame
             
In love's craz

  
y game
             
I'd be a legen

          
d in my time
             
If they gave g

          
old statuettes
             
For tears and 

  
regrets
             
I'd be a legen

       
d in my time

[Bridge]
    
But they don't

 give awards
    
And there's no

 praise or fam

e

For a heart th

en
     
Over love that

's in vain

[Verse 2]
             
If loneliness 

              
meant world ac


claim
             
Then everyone
