an old favorite song

"It's a Heartache" by Rod Steward (1970 something)

("ain't" is slang for "isn't" or "aren't" or "am not")

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 her till your arms break
Then she lets you down

It ain't right with love to share
When you find she 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 she doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you

Oh, it's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love her till your arms break
Then she lets you down

It's a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It's a heartache
Love her till your arms break
Then she lets you down
It's a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain...
