as recorded by Lynn Anderson


Faithless love like a river flows,
Like a raindrop's fallin' on a lonesome rose
Down in some valley where nobody goes;
Faithless love will find me
And its misery entwine me,
Faithless love like a river flows!

Faithless love, where did I go wrong?
Was it tellin' stories in a heartbreak song
Where nobody's right and nobody's wrong?
Faithless love will find you
And its misery entwine you,
Faithless love, where did I go wrong?

Well I guess I'm standin' in a hall of broken dreams,
That's the way it sometimes goes!
And every new love never turns out like it seems,
I guess the feelin' comes and goes!

Faithless love like a river flows,
Like a raindrop's fallin' on a lonesome rose
Down in some valley where nobody goes;
Faithless love has found me,
Thrown its chilly arms around me,
Faithless love like the river flows!
