Waiting For The Heartache

(album: Jennifer Rush - 1984)

Hard as a rock you made your heart
An you're so sure and that it's me to blame
How can you lose when you hold all the cards
But who can win at a losing game
You told me that I had to live without you
Hey loneliness is no stranger to my live
And I know you'll get by

I've been waiting for the heartache to come
I've been waiting for the tears to start to fall
I've been waiting for the heartache to come
But it don't come at all
No it don't come at all

I'm wide awake but I feel no pain
Lying alone in this bed of thorns
Headlights scream across these walls like flames
Is this the calm just before the storm
I thought that I could never live without you
Funny how things change when live says jump
You're not the only one

I've been waiting for the heartache to come
I've been waiting for the tears to start to fall
I've been waiting for the heartache to come
But it don't come at all
No it don't come at all

I thought that I was headed for a broken heart
But a heart can fall so far and not apart
I'm lying in the dark

I've been waiting for the heartache to come
I've been waiting for the tears to start to fall
I've been waiting for the heartache to come
But it don't come at all

I'm not reaching out for you in the night
But something deep inside me says it's alright
I've been waiting for the heartache to come
But it don't come at all
It don't come at all.
