You can climb a whole lot of stairs when your legs are younger You can get along on nothing when you're making a start You can eat brown rice and hope with time on your side Ah but it gets much harder when you get to the losing part When it never came true never happened to you It just slowly faded away 'til it broke your heart Some dreams die harder some are living yet Sooner or later you get to the losing part And there's a whole lot of fish in The sea when you first start fishing You're gonna take your time in choosing you're gonna be smart And there ain't no need to hurry when you looking 'em over But it's time to worry when you get to the losing part When it never came true never happened to you It just slowly faded away 'til it broke your heart Some dreams die harder some are living yet Sooner or later you get to the losing part When it never came true never happened to you It just slowly faded away 'til it broke your heart Some dreams die harder some are living yet Sooner or later you get to the losing part You think that love's forever when you're a beginner Just one love for life and a constant heart And you're so sure that love's made you a winner Right up to the day when you get to the losing part When it never came true never happened to you It just slowly faded away 'til it broke your heart Some dreams die harder some are living yet Sooner or later you get to the losing part Sooner or later you get to the losing part
