Lyrics
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache (oh, yeah)
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
You love until your heart breaks
Then he lets you down
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game (yeah, yeah)
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you, yes, I do
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
You love until your heart breaks
Then he lets you down
It's a heartache
Standing in the cold rain
You love until your heart breaks
Then he lets you down
