Lyrics
Every day is the same old day since you broke my heart.
I've been drinking to keep from fading away but I'm still falling apart.
I'm walking the floor until midnight. I'm paying those heartbreak blues
Since I can't have you I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues.
I had one good hearted woman. I played two times her heart.
Three friends told me to quit my messing around but I forgot that part
Now I'm walking the floor until midnight, paying those heartbreak dues
Since I can't have you I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues.
Chorus: Well you told me you would love but as long as I was true
I said I'd never make you cry but then I broke your heart in two
Now I'm walking the floor until midnight, paying those heartbreak dues
Since I can't have you I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues.
I had one good hearted woman. I played two times her heart.
Three friends told me to quit my messing around but I forgot that part
Now I'm walking the floor until midnight, paying those heartbreak dues
Since I can't have you I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues.
Chorus: Well you told me you would love but as long as I was true
I said I'd never make you cry but then I broke your heart in two
Now I'm walking the floor until midnight, paying those heartbreak dues
Since I can't have you I'm gonna lose my heart to the blues.
