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, nothing but a fool's game, standing in the cold rain, feeling like a clown
It's a heartache, nothing but a heartache, love him till your arms break, then he let's 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, 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

It's a heartache, nothing but a heartache, love him till your arms break, then he let's you down
It's a fool's game, nothing but a fool's game, standing in the cold rain, feeling like a clown

Leaning in your corner like a candidate for wax Sidewalk social scientist don't get no satisfaction from your cigarette It's10 to 10, time is runningout Lock up all your memories, get outta here, you know that we can run Today can last anothermillion years Today could be the endof me It's eleven fifty nine, and I want to stay alive

Pumping like afugitive incover from the night Take it down thefreeway like a bullet to the ocean Wait until the morning, take  tomorrow by the hand Take it down the highway like arocket to the ocean, we can run Today can last anothermillion years Today could be the endof me It's eleven fifty nine, and I want to stay alive

Hanging on a frequency, burning like a fire Boy, you've got the motion down, it's getting late, I'm tired and I've lost control Don't leave me here, time is running out Take me down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we canrun Today can last another millionyears Today could be the end of me It's eleven fiftynine, and I want to stay alive

intro

Feel I'm goin' back to Massachusetts, Something's telling me I must go home.
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts,The day I left her standing on her own.

Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco, Gotta do the things I wanna do.
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts, They brought me back to see my way with you.

Talk about the life in Massachusetts, Speak about the people I have seen,
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts, And Massachusetts is one place I have seen.

I will remember Massachusetts...
I will remember Massachusetts...

I started a joke, which started the whole world crying,But I didnt seethat the joke was on me, oh no.

I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing,Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.

I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes, And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.

Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.

I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes, And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.

Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.that the joke was on me.that the joke was on me.
