Mark Chesnutt

This Heartache Never Sleeps

I worked myself to the bone

Tired as a man can get

It's the only way that I know

Might help me to forget

I lay me down

And I pray my soul to keep.

Now, it's two a.m. and I should be

Sleeping like a log

But I can't blame the poundin' rain

Or the neighbor's barkin' dog

It's what you do to me

This heartache never sleeps.

Yeah, twenty four hours of every day

I can feel it down in my chest

From the moment you walked away

Well, I ain't got no rest

It won't let me be

This heartache never sleeps.

Well, like a ghost that haunts me

Down at the end of my bed

Your memory, it taunts me

And it won't stay out of my head

Till you come back

It ain't never gonna leave.

So I might as well get out of this bed

And put the coffee on

Girl you know I'm not alone

At the breakin' of the dawn

'Cause just like me

This heartache never sleeps.

Yeah, twenty four hours of every day

I can feel it down in my chest

From the moment you walked away

Well, I ain't got no rest

It won't let me be

This heartache never sleeps.

It won't let me be

This heartache never sleeps.

Won't let me be

Won't let me be

This heartache never sleeps...
