This Old Heartache

It's been a month of Sunday's since I laid eyes on you

Have you changed your ways or have you even tried to

I wish I could kill all this worry and regret

But I am haunted still by the things I can't forget

It's hard to take, this old heartache

It's drivin' me out of my mind

I can't take it and I can't shake it

And it lives with me all the time

People look at me and they think I've got it all

I'm happy and go lucky and I'll never take a fall

What they never see when they look from the outside

Is the thing that tortures me and eats me up inside

It's hard to take, this old heartache

It's driving me out of mind

I can't take it and I can't shake it

And it lives with me all the time

You think that I don't care hut you don't have a clue

Life is never fair, no matter what you do

And if you only knew az the thoughts I live with every day

And the peace of mind it costs and the hell I have to pay

It's hard to take, this old heartache

It's drivin' me out of my mind

I can't take it and I cant shake it

And it lives with me all the time

Yeah, it lives with me all the time
