LYRICS:
I'm out all night
In smoky places
Tryin' hard to hide my face in
Some shadowy corner
Where lovers rendezvous

The morning sun
May find me wakin'
With a head that hurts
And a heart that's breakin'
But what have I got to lose
Now that I've lost you

The check I cashed
Won't last a weekend
Livin' fast is all that's keepin'
My whole world from turnin'
A deeper shade of blue

Lately fun is not so funny
When It's just a waste
Of time and money
But what have I got to lose
Now that I've lost you

I might as well live the high life
Enjoy every moment I can
But since you've been out of my life
I've enjoyed about all I can stand

High ideals
I've fallen south of
Said some things
That I'm not proud of
I make no excuses for anything I do
I live for laughs
There's no denyin'
But Ive got to laugh
To keep from cryin'
But what have I got to lose
Now that I've lost you

Now that I've lost you
