Lyrics for In Love in Vain

It's only human for anyone to want to be in love But who wants to be In Love In Vain At night you hang around the house and weep your heart out And cry your eyes out and rack your brain You say it and wonder, how anyone is wonderful as he Could 'cause you such misery and pain I thought that I would be in Heaven, but I'm only up a tree 'Cause it's just my luck to be In Love In Vain
