Alison Krauss and Union Station Lyrics
"Love You in Vain"

(John Pennell)

I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
Do you still love me and will you remain
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
Please don't let me love you in vain.

I used to think your love would always save me
And that you'd always stay right by my side
But I can see a change coming over you
And the tears I cried just can't hide.

No, I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
Do you still love me and will you remain
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
Please don't let me love you in vain.

--- Fiddle - Banjo Instrumental ---

I can't pretend that love is just a passtime
And that you never meant to be with me
So darling, please don't leave me all alone
So run it by your memory.

I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
Do you still love me and will you remain
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
Please don't let me love you in vain.

So, please don't let me love you in vain...
