You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
So who does your past belong to today
Baby, you dont say nothing when youre feeling this way
Girls in the bars thinking who is this guy
But they dont think nothing when theyre telling you lies
You look so careless when theyre shooting that bull
Dont you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full
Tell me youre trying to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
Boys say, When is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God, I hope he comes back soon
And everybodys talking but you dont hear a thing
Youre still uptown on your downhill swing
Boulevards empty, why dont you come around
Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown
Theres plenty of dives to be someone youre not
Just say youre looking for something you might have forgot
Dont bother calling to say youre leaving alone
Cause theres a fool on every corner when youre trying to get home
Just tell em your trying to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
Boys say, When is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God, I hope he comes back soon
Tell me youre trying to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
Boys say, When is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God, I hope he comes back soon
