Little Black Ache

Chasing my excuses to the end of the night

Tried to make a friend, but it ended with a fight

I don't know why, and I don't know when

But my keys have found a way to lock me out again

Sleeping on the subway in my interview tie

Wander through the rain, sit and wonder why

I haven't got a plan, I haven't got a clue

I've only got one lonely thing that's gonna see me through

I got my little black ache (What you got?)

I got my little black ache (What you got?)

I got my little black ache (What you got?)

My little black ache won't fade

Lovely little girl, crowded little place

I swear on this old Bible that I've never seen her face

She talks like I know what she's talking about

Somewhere there's a door that's got to let me out

Hello, sleepless soul I'm a'passing on the street

Know that like me you only rest on your feet

I know I had some friends, I can almost hear their names

Now I got one lonely thing and no one left to blame

I got my little black ache...
