Here Comes the Heartache Again - Tony Bennett

One more lonely trail

One more busted guardrail

One more safety net shot to hell

You’d have thought after the last time I’d have learned

to read the road signs

The maps, they are of no use

I’m blind

Your cab speeds away in the rain

But there’s a guest that’ll soon be showing up again

I recognize her all-too-familiar face

'Cause here comes heartache

Who knows how we got this far

A black leather jacket and a fast car

Wasn’t it always written in the stars?

You’d have thought after such a common thing

The books and pills and the distractions

I’ve have found a way to start

Delivered your good-bye with many a tear

Academy Awards await you, dear

One for the best supporting break

Here comes heartache

It was your movie from the very start

You needed a lead, so I tried out for the part

Forgot all my lines, so I gave you my heart

I got a review that you wrote

Keep it in the pocket of an old coat

What am I supposed with any of this?

The whole thing hits like a tidal wave

The pain, the shame, the fear and the rage

When that wall hits the beach, and we break

Here comes heartache
