Heartaches

Bachman Turner Overdrive · B.T.O. Anthology [1993]

[Look at me, I was just a man who was lonely

Had some time on my hands

The world's greatest plans in my jeans

I saw you, you came to me like you knew me

I don't think you knew that it threw me

I didn't know what to say to you then

Seeing you here, is all I can stand

I'm only a man who has heartaches

Deep burning pain as my heart breaks

Watchin' you walk sets my soul aflame

I could put the blame on the world's oldest game



Heartaches yeah yeah

Heartaches, heartaches

Let me tell you about my...

Heartaches, heartaches, heartaches

Let me tell you about my...

Heartaches, heartaches, oh
