It all started with a heartache
It got worse with every mistake
When you think you've taken all you can take
It's going to hit you like a hurricane before an earthquake
And then the pain will make your heart break
Tears you cry won't be the kind that are fake
Years go by and it gets harder to take
It all started with a heartache
Tell me girl am I the only one
Who's been drinking 'till the morning sun
Who's been thinking 'bout the damage done
Wondering where we went wrong
And I've been wondering if it's the end
You and I we were more than just friends
Lines were crossed and now the boundaries blend
I don't think we can start over again
It all started with a heartache
It got worse with every mistake
When you think you've taken all you can take
It's going to hit you like a hurricane before an earthquake
And then the pain will make your heart break
Tears you cry won't be the kind that are fake
Years go by and it gets harder to take
It all started with a heartache
Reflecting on the time we had
Some was good but plenty more was bad
I never really fit into your plan
I didn't mean to make you sad
And I didn't mean to make you cry
But no matter how hard I'd try
I'd only further realize
That I ain't cut out to be your guy
It all started with a heartache
It got worse with every mistake
When you think you've taken all you can take
It's going to hit you like a hurricane before an earthquake
And then the pain will make your heart break
Tears you cry won't be the kind that are fake
Years go by and it gets harder to take
It all started with a heartache
Years crawl by and it gets easier to cry
But you don't 'cause you're getting old
Pain is building up you're wondering why
But you should have know 'cause you were told
It all started with a heartache
It got worse with every mistake
When you think you've taken all you can take
It's going to hit you like a hurricane before an earthquake
It all started with a heartache
It got worse with every mistake
When you think you've taken all you can take
It's going to hit you like a hurricane before an earthquake
And then the pain will make your heart break
Tears you cry won't be the kind that are fake
Years go by and it gets harder to take
It all started with a heartache
It all starts with a heartache
I'll tell you something 'bout a heartache
