Far Cry From A Heartache

(album: Nothing To Lose - 1988)

Love can be hell
A hammer coming down real hard
Love can give you nightmares
Wake up staring in the dark

Why do fools rush in, rush in, rush in
Where wise men never go?
Well, everybody takes that chance, you see, or else
Or else they'll never know

Well, it cuts like a diamond, burns like a flame
Caught up in the middle of this crazy game
When you're running with the devil you got hell to pay
And a heart's too hard to break
That's a far cry, well, it's a far cry
A far cry from a heartache
A far cry from a heartache

Life can be confusing
I been waiting for a change
Love has its illusions
It can be a crazy game, crazy game

Well, all the fools rush in, rush in, rush in
Where wise men never go
'Cause living without loving is a feeling
I hope you never know

Well, it cuts like a diamond, burns like a flame
Caught up in the middle of this crazy game
When you're running with the devil you got hell to pay
And a heart's too hard to break
And it's a far cry, I know it's still a
It'a a far cry, a far cry from a heartache
A far cry from a heartache, ooh baby

Oh, baby

Well, it cuts like a diamond, burns like a flame
Caught up in the middle of this crazy game
When you're running with the devil you got hell to pay
And a heart's too hard to break
That's a far cry, it's a far cry
It's still a far cry from a heartache
A far cry from a heartache

Well, it's a far cry
It's a far cry, a far cry from a heartache
A far cry from a heartache
Ooh, yeah
A far cry from a heartache

Give and take and make mistakes
And still you never get the breaks
It's just a heartache
You win and lose and sing the blues
And still you never get to choose
It's just a heartache, now

A far cry from a heartache
It's a heartache
It's just a heartache
Far cry, far cry, far cry
