Seven Year Ache

You act like you were just born tonight Face down in a memory but feeling all right So, who does your past belong to today? Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way Girls in the bars thinking who is this guy But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies You look so careless when they're shooting that bull Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full Tell me you're trying to cure a seven-year ache See what else your old heart can take Boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room" The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon" And everybody's talking but you don't hear a thing You're still uptown on your downhill swing The boulevard's empty, why don't you come around? Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown? There's plenty of dives to be someone you're not Just say you're looking for something you might have forgot Don't bother calling to say you're leaving alone 'Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're trying to get home Just tell 'em you're trying to cure a seven-year ache See what else your old heart can take Boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room" But the girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon" Tell me you're trying to cure a seven-year ache See what else your old heart can take Boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room" The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon"
