Don't Tell Me About Heartaches

Who can that be at one o'clock in the morning?

Hey man, come on in, what's happenin'? What's going on?

Hey man, I got to talk to you

Well, what's wrong?

It's my lady, man, she's gone

What?!

Yeah, she left four days ago

Are you serious?

You don't know what it's like, you have no idea what I'm going through

Can't work... all I think about is her, day and night, night and day

I don't know what I'm gonna do

You just don't know. You just don't know what I'm going through

You mean

You try every day

But you can't figure out

Why in the world she went away

She did not say

You miss her every night

When you reach out to touch her

She's not there to hold you tight

It doesn't seem right

Don't tell me about heartaches

I lived with one every day

So, don't tell me about heartaches

I lost someone I loved that way

I've been there. I know how it feels

I think everybody does, who's really been in love with someone

It's hard to sleep

As the night closes in

You realize you're in too deep

And you can't sleep

And you lay there awake

And you visualize her next to you

That's all it takes

And your heart breaks

So, don't tell me about heartaches

I lived with one every day

No, don't tell me about heartaches

I lost someone I loved that way

That way

Let me tell you this: it's not as bad as you think it is

Trust me, everybody goes through this

A misunderstanding, someone says the wrong thing in a passion of anger

It's obvious to me that you, you still love her, man...

And what I suggest you do is find her, and some kind of a way

Make her understand that no matter what problems you have

You can... you can overcome anything if you just communicate and relate to each other

It's love that has put you together

Believe me, man, I'm not an authority on this

But that's how I put my life back together

And I tell you, and give you the same advice I gave myself. Go for it, man

Find her and tell her that you love her and that you need her

Don't let nothing in this world keep you two apart from each other

Sure, you got ups and downs, and you got downs and ups

But don't you even think, my friend, that you're the only one that's going through this

I've been there myself. So...

Don't tell me about heartaches

No no no no, no no

Don't tell me about heartaches

I lost someone I loved that way

Don't tell me...
