Heartaches

(album: Rock N' Roll Nights - 1979)

Look at me, I was just a man who was lonely
Had some time on my hands
The world's greatest plans in my jeans
I saw you, you came to me like you knew me
I don't think you knew that it threw me
I didn't know what to say to you then

[1st part of chorus:]

Heartaches
Wishing we hadn't met for my sake

And my...

Visions of loving you and
Heartaches

Seeing you here, is all I can stand
I'm only a man who has heartaches
Deep burning pain as my heart breaks
Watching you walk sets my soul aflame
I could put the blame on the world's oldest game

Heartaches yeah yeah
Heartaches, heartaches
Let me tell you about my...
Heartaches, heartaches, heartaches
Let me tell you about my...
Heartaches, heartaches, oh
