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 boys in the bars thinking, who is this gal? 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 Girls say, when is he gonna give us some room The boys say, god I hope he comes back soon Everybody's talking but you don't hear a thing Still uptown on your downhill swing Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around? Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown? Splitting your dice 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 Girls say, when is he gonna give us some room The boys say, god I hope he comes back soon Everybody's talking but you don't hear a thing Still uptown on your downhill swing Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around? Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown? Tell me you're trying to cure a seven-year ache See what else your old heart can take Girls say, when is he gonna give us some room The boys 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 Girls say, when is he gonna give us some room The boys say, god I hope he comes back soon
