Down in the valley of love there's a big ol' lonesome cave where all the broken hearts mourn the love they gave On coal black nights their tears are carried on the wind And wash you with the feeling that you'll never love again Oh, how the poison vines do wrap around your soul And drag you down a long dark path to the place where nothing grows It's cold and lonely and your only company Are the ever present voices singing love's lost melody If you've ever heard it you know there's no sadder sound Than love fading like a whistle on the last train leaving town 'Til all you hear are the echoes of love It's cold and lonely and your only company Are the ever present voices singing love's lost melody If you've ever heard it you know there's no sadder sound Than love fading like a whistle on the last train leaving town 'Til all you hear are the echoes All you hear are the echoes 'Til all you hear are the echoes of love
