Heartaches Just Walked In

(Conway Twitty)



Sittiin' in a dim cafe listenin' while the jukebox play

The songs I like to hear when I'm alone

Thinkin' of my wasted past wonderin' if someday at last

I win the sweetest love I've ever known.



Then all at once I saw her arm in arm with my best friend

Heartbreak can't be far away

'Cause heartaches just walked in

I watched her as she smiled at him

And though the tiny lights were dim



I could see the love light shining in her eyes

With aching heart and trembling hand

I stood and watched another man

Hold the girl I wanted for my wife.



And as the teardrops started

I thought of things that might have been

Heartbreak can't be far away

'Cause heartaches just walked in



--- Instrumental ---



And then my poor heart skipped a beat

She took the table next to me

She didn't even notice I was there

She looked around and just by chance

Our eyes met in a casual glance



She smiled and it was more than I could bare

How could she know the way I feel

to her I'm just a friend

Heartbreak can't be far away

'Cause heartaches just walked in...
