Heartbreak's a Blessing

How many times did I let it slide by

When the boys got the pick of the best

I didn't know what to do

I couldn't pick up a clue

Going home all alone in my bed

I was a high school loser never made it with a lady

When I did, I got the best

She knew it all, taught me everything but what I learned

Best lesson was when she left

I learned

Heartbreak's a blessing

But you don't know it then

It likes to mess your mind up

Heartbreak's your best friend

I need a woman just like I need a hole in my head

I got a wall going 'round my heart

I see my friends go through trouble and when trouble's around

It always leads to a girl in the end

I didn't know it'd be this hard to find

Never knew it'd take this long

But if I'm gonna have to wait

I'm gonna wait

I'll probably die an old man alone

Heartbreak's a blessing

But you don't know it then

It likes to mess your mind up

Heartbreak's your best friend

When I see a pretty lady walking down the street

My eyes get overtaken, my knees get weak

I can talk the talk but I'm easily tempted

Resisting a good looking..woman

Ain't so easy in the end

I need a woman just like I need a hole in my head

I got a wall going 'round my heart

I see my friends go through trouble and when trouble's around

It always leads to a girl in the end

I didn't know it'd be this hard to find

Never knew it'd take this long

But if I'm gonna have to wait

I'm gonna wait

I'll probably die an old man alone

I like that

Heartbreak's a blessing

But you don't know it then

It likes to mess your mind up

Heartbreak's your best friend
