Harmless Heartache

I never thought the pain could make me feel this way Getting over you will take some time I hear them say I thought that I’d forget you, control my life and make The memory of your sweet love, a harmless heartache I was not brand new to love, I’d had a round or two But no one ever made me feel the way you always do It’s not a harmless heartache when it burns you deep inside This heart feels every memory and knows the tears I’ve cried If I could bring her back again I’d never let her go I’d treat her like a queen now that I know the things I know You’re playing with the hottest fire, you think your heart won’t break Then you’ll see you can’t escape the harmless heartache Just a harmless heartache, I’m feeling here tonight You’d still be here with me, and we’d hold each other tight But you say I’ll be better off, and so just for my sake You left me here alone to bear my harmless heartache

Andy, 'I thought that I’d forget you, control my life and make ~~ The memory of your sweet love, a harmless heartache'. Yes indeed. Oh, they say it takes two to tango, but never tell you of the one left to untangle the memories. -Richard
