You act like you
were just born tonight
Face down in a memory
but feelin' alright
So who does your past
belong to today
Baby you don't say nothin'
when you're feelin' this way
Girls in the bars thinkin'
who is this guy
But they don't think nothin'
when they're tellin' you lies
You look so careless
when they're
shootin' that bull
Don't you know heartaches
are heroes
when their pockets are full
Tell me you're tryin'
to cure the 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
Everybody's talkin'
but you don't hear a thing
You're still uptown
on your downhill swing
Boulevard's empty
Why don't you come
around baby
What is so great
about sleepin' downtown
There's plenty of times
to be someone you're not
Just say you're
lookin' for somethin'
you might have forgot
Don't bother callin' to say
you're leavin' alone
'Cause there's a fool
on every corner
when you're tryin'
to get home
Tell him you're tryin'
to cure the 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 you're tryin'
to cure the 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
