Maybe I'm in for crying the blues
But nevertheless I'm in love with you

Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking 

Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
And maybe I'll give much more than I'll get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you

Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
And maybe I'll give much more than I'll get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you

But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
