When I was young
The sky was filled with stars
I watched them burn out one by one
I`ve had my share
Of disappointing love affairs
And I`m no stranger to disillusionment
Little darlin`
If you need a helping hand
If you need someone
You can count on me
And I will understand
Heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down, we`ll talk about it
Heartache spoken here
Heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down we`ll talk about it
Heartache spoken here
A house of cards
A castle made of sand
Don`t take much to blow away
Rows and rows
Of broken hearts and broken homes
So much sadness, you see it every day
Little darlin` If you need a helping hand
If you need someone
You can count on me
And I will understand
Heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down, we`ll talk about it
Heartache spoken here
Well, heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down we`ll talk about it
Heartache spoken here
I know it hurts so
When the one you love don`t need you
I know the sorrow
That a reckless heart can lead to
Heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down, we`ll talk about it
Heartache spoken here
Heartache spoken here
I know a thing or two about heartbreak and tears
So come on down we`ll talk about it
Heartache spoken here
