When The Heartache Is Over

Tina Turner · Other Songs - Tina Turner

Once in a lifetime you find
Someone to show you the way
Someone to make your decisions
And I let you lead me astray

Who did you think you were fooling
Said you were missing me blind
But the truth is I knew you were lying
You were using me time after time

When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you

Time to move on with my life now
Leaving the past all behind
I can make my own decisions
It was only a matter of time

Sometimes I look back in anger
Thinking about all the pain
But I know that I'm stronger without you
And that I'll never need you again

When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you

When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you

When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Yeah I can live without you
