Seven Year Ache

Seven Year Ache Lyrics

You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling alright
So who does your past belong to today
Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way

Girls in the bars thinkin' who is this guy
But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies
You look so careless when they're shootin' that bull
Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full

Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say when is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God, I hope he comes back soon

Everybody's talkin' but you don't hear a thing
Still uptown on your downhill swing
Boulevard's empty why don't you come around
Baby what's so great about sleeping downtown

There's plenty of dives to be someone you're not
Just say you're looking for something you might have forgot
Don't bother calling to say you're leaving alone
'Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're tryin' to get home

Just tell 'em your tryin' to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say when is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God, I hope he comes back soon

Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
The boys say when is he gonna give us some room
The girls say, God, I hope he comes back soon
