in between the heartaches

in between the heartaches

you hold me here in your arms

and say you love me. in between the heartaches

the way you kiss i can tell

you're thinking of me. i know you love me. and i that makes up

for all of the heartaches

and the sadness

and the tears. everyone keeps asking me

why i stay with you

the way you hurt me. they can see

how many times

i'm alone and blue

when you desert me. you and come and go

without a letter. and they all say

that i should get up and go. they don't know. they don't know that. in between the heartaches

you hold me here in your arms

and say you love me. in between the heartaches

the way you kiss i can tell

you thinking of me. i know you love me. and that makes up

for all the heartaches

and the sadness

and the tears. they don't ever see us

in between the heartaches.
