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 don't say nothing
when you're feeling this way
The girls in the bars thinking,
"who is this guy?"
But they don't think nothing
when they're telling you lies
You look so careless
when they're shooting that bull
Don't you know heartaches are heroes
when their pockets are full
Tell me you're trying
to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say,
"when is he gonna give us some room"
The girls say,
"god I hope he comes back soon"
(Instrumental)
Everybody's talking 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 sleeping downtown?
Plenty of dives to be someone you're not
You say you're looking for
something you might've forgot
Don't bother calling to
say you're leaving alone
'Cause there's a fool on every corner
when you're trying to get home
Tell me you're trying
to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say,
"when is he gonna give us some room"
The girls say,
"god I hope he comes back soon"
Tell me you're trying to
cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say,
"when is he gonna give us some room"
The girls say,
"god I hope he comes back soon"
