Heartache Avenue

You used to hold me, my baby, every night

And your lips, sweet to kiss

Left me starry-eyed

And when you whispered our love would never die

I believed in the dream

The dream of you and I

Mmm, it's like the sun won't rise today

I know that

Nothing gold can stay

It slowly fades away

The sound

Of footsteps on the ground

As I'm drifting through

Heartache Avenue

Don't know where to

Heartache Avenue

And no cars

No songs from crowded bars

Just the empty gloom of

Heartache Avenue

Where love's never true

Heartache Avenue

And as I'm walking, I keep talking to the rain

Every crack in the pavement

Seems to spell your name

Some days, I just wish we'd never met

Some days, I

Feel nothing but regret

Can't tell what lies ahead

The sound

Of footsteps on the ground

As I'm drifting through

Heartache Avenue

Don't know where to

Heartache Avenue

And no cars

No songs from crowded bars

Just the empty gloom of

Heartache Avenue

Where love's never true

Heartache Avenue

When someday you'll meet the one

And she breaks your heart for fun

You'll get to see the view

From Heartache Avenue

The sound

Of footsteps on the ground

As I'm drifting through

Heartache Avenue

Don't know where to

Heartache Avenue

And no cars

No songs from crowded bars

Just the empty gloom of

Heartache Avenue

Where love's never true

Heartache Avenue

Na, na-na-na, na-na-na

Heartache Avenue

Na, na-na-na, na-na-na

Heartache Avenue
