To find a friend
Is not as easy to pour a drink
But even harder is
To separate the good from those that stink

To realize this you spent years
little scared, sometimes with tears
You will find out you're still the same
And all those left, the ones to blame

Old loves die hard
And I can't help it
But it's tearing me apart

So what is left for you
Is just to heal the scars of hate
It seems a waste to try
To teach an old dog newer tricks

If love appears to be a crime
If hate is hip, to cheat is fine
Just let me know, 'cos I'll take off
I hate to hate, I want to love

Old loves die hard
And I can't help it
But it's tearing me apart

Old loves die hard
They're far from good
And they are only good from far

You create a mediocre heart-attack
To find the clue for right and wrong
single word sometimes has more effect
To state a point of view
That could make your weakness strong

Old loves die hard
And I can't help it
But it's tearing me apart

Old loves die hard
They're far from good
And they are only good from far

Don't hide your heart
New love will start
