A Heart In Search Of Love

(album: On Arrival - 1990)

Girl on the street, can't be more than fifteen
Street is cold, but home was mean
She works hard, but she don't charge much

Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love
Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love

He sits in his car outside a bar room door
Thinks about a girl he doesn't know anymore
Pulls on a bottle to work his courage up.

Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love
Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love

Oh now, maybe you and me, we got something
And it gets us through the night.
But when we're holding each other
And there's only the silence
We both wish it was somthing it isn't quite

Sometimes I hear soft crying
I reach out to you
Oh, I feel like crying too

Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love
Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love

Sits in her room, outside the rain is falling
She's got a phone, but you know he ain't calling
Just another married man that's all he was.

Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love
Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love
Nothing hurts like a heart in search of love
