Waiting For My Heartaches To Mend

WAITING FOR MY HEARTACHES TO MEND - Written by Carroll Bryant

Hungry for love

I guess that’s what I am

I’ve suffered enough

Too many times I’ve been damned

Push comes to shove

To this I can’t hide

Tender to touch like sweet apple pie

And so the search continues

For a love that may not exist

Too many times I’ve felt like I’ve been used

Getting so upset and pissed at the world

Waiting for my heartaches to mend

Getting mad at the girls

Who are trying so hard to pretend

Why do I dream and fantasize?

When am I gonna realize?

Is every girl filled with lies?

There’s just too much pain in the night

Hungry for shelter

Seeking trust and respect

Life is a liar

And it’s lying again

So pardon the pun

You weak hearted bitch

Clap off, clap on like an electrical switch

And so I guess I’ll just go crazy

And pound my head up against the wall

Too many whores and not enough ladies

Getting so upset and pissed at the world

Waiting for my heartaches to mend

Getting mad at the girls

Who are trying so hard to pretend

Why do I dream and fantasize?

When am I gonna realize?

Is every girl filled with lies?

There’s just too much pain in the night

Is love just a roulette wheel you spin in the middle of the dark?

You lay your money down and bet it won’t even break your heart

Is love just a blackjack table without chips because you’re playing for fun?

I’ll be damned if still I’m able to catch me a number twenty-one

I always feel like I am on the run

Damn it to hell, who is the one?

Hungry for love

I guess that must be me

I’m scratching like hell

From all these female fleas

Tit for the tat

What the hell does that mean?

I’m watching them come then watching them leave

And so there is no answer

To the questions that I just can’t ask

Too many times I’ve felt like I’ve been bruised

Getting so upset and pissed at the world

Waiting for my heartaches to mend

Getting mad at the girls

Who are trying so hard to pretend

Why do I dream and fantasize?

When am I gonna realize?

Is every girl filled with lies?

There’s just too much pain in the night

Too much pain

Too much pain for to fight

Too much pain

Waiting for my heartaches to mend
