Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Good morning, heartache
You old gloomy sight
Good morning, heartache
Thought we said goodbye last night
I turned and tossed until it seemed you had gone
But here you are with the dawn
[Verse 2]
Wish I'd forget you
But you're here to stay
It seems I met you
When my love went away
Now every day I start by saying to you
"Good morning, heartache, what's new?"
[Bridge]
Stop haunting me now
Can't shake you nohow
Just leave me alone
I've got those Monday blues
Straight through Sunday blues
[Verse 3]
Good morning, heartache
Here we go again
Good morning, heartache
You're the one who knew me when
Might as well get used to you hanging around
Good morning, heartache, sit down
[Bridge]
Stop haunting me now
Can't shake you nohow
Just leave me alone
I've got those Monday blues
Straight through Sunday blues
[Verse 4]
Good morning, heartache
Here we go again
Good morning, heartache
You're the one who knew me when
Might as well get used to you hanging around
Good morning, heartache, sit down
