Queen of Heartache

I'm the Queen of Heartache sifting through all this pain
it's a never ending sorrow and you're the one to blame
it'll be the same tomorrow and I don't know what I'll do
I'm the queen of heartache and its all because of you
I walk out of the movies with tears in my eyes
every. book I read has stories that make me wanna cry
all the songs on the radio are making me feel blue
I'm the queen of heartache and there's nothing I can do
I'm the Queen of heartache, the saddest one in all the town
people try to cheer me up but I just bring them down
I'm the queen of heartache, despair's my middle name
ever longing for the love I lost to end this heartache game
My cup is nearly empty while my tears they overflow
every lining has a storm cloud that bring the wind and snow
the light at the end of the tunnel is a train coming down the line
I'm the queen of heartache and this trainwreck is all mine
I'm the Queen of heartache, the saddest one in all the town
people try to cheer me up but I just bring them down
I'm the queen of heartache, despair's my middle name
ever longing for the love I lost to end this heartache game

I'll Be Here

I'll be here when the sun goes down
I'll be here won't you come around
don't be too long don't be too late
I'll be here and for you I'll wait
I'll be here when the tide goes out
I'll be here will you be about
the sand'll be cold underneath my feet
I'll be here hoping we can meet
I'll be here when the thunder starts
I'll be I know I broke your heart
I'll be watching the ocean knowing what I've done
and I'll be here knowing why you're gone
I'll be here when the storm clouds open
I'll be here and baby I'll be hoping
that the water will wash away all your pain
I'll be here please come back again

Into the Ground
03:16

This car is making noises, I'm pretending not to hear
Hank's 'Cold Cold Heart' is drowning out my tears
the engine's running hot, I need to get out of town
the fuel light keeps flashing on, but I'm not slowing down
gonna drive your car till the engine blows
till she smokes and burns down a mountain road
gonna drive your car into the ground
just like you drove my heart, gonna keep my foot down
needs a jump start every morning the oil leaks getting worse
only one headlight is working, water hose is burst
are you looking for your keys? are you thinking of our fight?
neither your fucking car or me, will be coming home tonight
gonna drive your car till the engine blows
till she smokes and burns down a mountain road
gonna drive your car into the ground
just like you drove my heart, gonna keep my foot down
wipers they're not working, the clutch it's 'bout to die
this car is really hurting, baby so am I
the wheels might still be turning but the tread is almost gone
I can smell that rubber burning...hazard lights are on
gonna drive your car till the engine blows
till she smokes and burns down a mountain road
gonna drive your car into the ground
just like you drove my heart, gonna keep my foot down

Stars

standing here beside you my heart can hardly find you
we're so far gone from where we used to be
so close I could touch you, it hurts me just how much you
wanna give us up and end this you and me
so many songs ago, you just stole the show
you made me feel like I could be your queen
now it's just cold and bare, there's nothing there for you to care
just longing where lovin used to be
stars in the sky, making me cry, sun on the hills ain't warmin these chills
birds might be singing but my eyes are stinging from the tears
when you said goodbye
whatever did I do to you to make you turn so cold and blue
to make you fall in love with someone knew
darlin I know you told me you're never gonna wanna hold me
cos someone else's arms are holdin you
stars in the sky, making me cry, sun on the hills ain't warmin these chills
birds might be singing but my eyes are stinging from the tears
when you said goodbye

Dishes

maybe all the good games have been played
maybe all the best friends have been made
all the good songs have been sung all the wine has been drunk
there's still so much to come
there's still ice in my drink, there are still dishes in the sink
still water in the tank, still no money in the bank
and there are still the thoughts of you that I think
even when all the wood has been burnt
even when you spend more money than we earn
my radiators leaking and my car keeps overheating
there's still so much to come
there's still ice in my drink, there are still dishes in the sink
still 2 boys and a girl who love EmmyLou and Merle
and there are still the thoughts of you that I think
there's still ice in my drink, there are still dishes in the sink
we're still too far apart, still that hurting in my heart
and there are still the thoughts of you that I think

Stone Cold
03:44
|

sitting by a candle wishing you were here
the silence I can handle but peace is nowhere near
you used to make me coffee now there's only coffee stains
my cup and heart are empty but this house is full of pain
photos on the wall of good times that used to be
pictures down the hall singing out our memories
the fireplace is warm like your heart used to be
the flames will soon be gone, just like your love for me
this house is cold and empty since you left me all alone
if home is where the heart is, this house is not a home
love is like a fire that burns into your soul
and the flames have turned to ashes
and your heart is stone cold
the table where we used to sit is pushed against the wall
your chair's still in the corner I never sit on it at all
I'm leaving the door open in case you've lost your keys
somehow I'm always hoping that you'll come back to me
this house is cold and empty since you left me all alone
if home is where the heart is, this house is not a home
love is like a fire that burns into your soul
and the flames have turned to ashes
and your heart is stone cold

If You Only Knew
02:21

you're the reason my heart beats, you're the reason I can't sleep
thoughts of you I'll always keep, if you only knew
yesterday you walked on by, I smiled tried to catch your eye
you wouldn't look and I don't know why, if you only knew
I'll never know why you can't see, you were meant for only me
no-one else can set me free, no-one else but you
if I could only turn back time, if I could only make you mine
I guess it's true that love is blind, if you only knew
there was a time I thought that we, could make a life for you and me
now I know that could never be, if you only knew
if I could live my life again, I wouldn't ask for anything
just to wear your wedding ring, if our only knew
I'll never know why you can't see, you were meant for only me
no-one else can set me free, no-one else but you
if I could only turn back time, if I could only make you mine
I guess it's true that love is blind, if you only knew

Desert Skies
03:35
|

|
it's been so long since I saw your face
your eyes would look so deep into my soul
done and dusted and out of place
where my heart used to be you left a hole
it's been a while but I still cry
just like the time in the cinema queue
I heard somebody call out your name
my eyes filled up and emptied out for you
desert skies bring all kinds of weather
they bring me down just like your lies
this lonesome road goes on forever
and always ends in desert skies
we used to lie under a blanket
stars, fire and wine
and now you've taken me for granted
and I'm all alone with desert skies
maybe you heard that I was leaving town
well I heard that you found somebody knew
baby I hope that it's love you found
my tears they just fall and I'm just missing you
desert skies bring all kinds of weather
they bring my down just like your lies
this lonesome road goes on forever
and always ends in desert skies

Nothing To Me

you can talk to me for hours say it'll never happen again
you can send me all those flowers you can say that you're my man
you can write me all those letters you can call me all night long
you can say I'm all that matters you can go on and on and on
words your words they mean nothing to me
you had your chance you blew it and now I'm done with you and me
you can sing about your love for me you can sing it from the hills
you an say that I'm your everything you can say you want me still
you can tell me how she wanted you how you didn't mean to stay
you can say that you were missing me I thought you would have walked away
words your words they mean nothing to me
you had your chance you blew it and now I'm done wiht you and me
you can tell me that you're aching that you didn't even think
you can say that your hearts aching but you're the one who broke our link
you can talk to me for hours say it'll never happen again
you can send me all those flowers you can say that you're my man
you can write me all those letters you can call me all night long
you can say I'm all that matters you can go on and on and on
words your words they mean nothing to me
you had your chance you blew it and now I'm done with you and me

Two Hearts
02:55
|
|||
|
I think of you more often than I should
there's something about your voice I'm longing for
I don't like it when you say it'll all be fine
cos there'll never come a day when you'll be mine
there shouldn't be this aching in my heart
this aching for you when we're apart
I don't like it when you say it'll all be fine
cos there'll never come a day when you'll be mine
two hearts tied to other hearts two souls that'll never know
just how it feels to be intertwined
cos there'll never come a day when you'll be mine
there shouldn't be this wondering in my mind
this wondering what you're doing all the time
I don't like it when you say it'll all be fine
cos there'll never come a day when you'll be mine
two hearts tied to other hearts two souls that'll never know
just how it feels to be intertwined
cos there'll never come a day when you'll be mine

One I Miss

you were the apple of my eye the sweetest story ever told
the cherry on my pie, my warmth when I was cold
you were the sugar in my tea, the jam on my toast
now you've said goodbye to me but you're the one I miss the most
you were the calm in my storm, the ice-cream in my bowl
the sunrise in the morn, the fire inside my soul
you were the butter on my bread, the gravy on my roast
I know its just been said but you're the one I miss the most
the one I miss the most of all those lovers gone away
the one I miss the most the one I think of every day
lovers come and go but love stays in the heart
the one I miss the most I never thought we'd ever part
you were the spring in my step, the icing on my cake
the song inside my head, the smile on my face
you were the water in my fountain, the only guest my heart will host
like the magic of the mountains you're the one I miss the most
the one I miss the most of all those lovers gone away
the one I miss the most the one I think of every day
lovers come and go but love stays in the heart
the one I miss the most I never thought we'd ever part

You're the One
02:49

when it comes to someone's shoulder to cry on
whenever I get lonesome you're the one
when it comes to letting bygones be bygones
whenever I need something you're the one
you're the one, that makes my heart sing
you're the one, never leaves me wanting
you're the one, that I reach out for
I need you darlin you're the one
on the days when the sun just won't shine through
when the lonely nights won't end, you're the one
my poor heart aches when I can't find you
but I know that it will mend cos you're the one
you're the one, that makes my heart sing
you're the one, never leaves me wanting
you're the one, that I reach out for
I need you darlin you're the one
darlin long ago when I first met you
your smiling eyes told me you're the one
there's been many times when I could have left you
but I know there'll never be another one
you're the one, that makes my heart sing
you're the one, never leaves me wanting
you're the one, that I reach out for
I need you darlin you're the one

Oceans Wide
03:47

she was so young the day that she went away
to find a better place to make a better way
she found a love the love was wild but it kept her warm
and it made a child
hold on she said, hold on to me, never let me go, cos you're my destiny
I'm here he said, I'm standing by your side, I'll be here till the end
my love is oceans wide
its funny how time seems to go so fast
you can close your eyes but you can't make it last
the sun still shines after the darkest dark
the fire still lights if you can make a spark
hold on she said, hold on to me, never let me go, cos you're my destiny
I'm here he said, I'm standing by your side, I'll be here till the end
my love is oceans wide
love is kind but life is harsh, lies are told to weeping hearts
words are spoken that should never been said
hearts are broken sometimes never mend
hold on she said, hold on to me, never let me go, cos you're my destiny
I'm here he said, I'm standing by your side, I'll be here till the end
my love is oceans wide
