Thought you were one who wouldn't run Who wouldn't do me wrong But the song that you were singing Was the same old heartache song
You treat me fine and you wined and dined And I believed you when you said "I love you, babe," but your only aim Was to get me in your bed
Now I don't even like you no more But I can't get you off of my mind Baby, you've got me livin' in Heartache Central Time (Heartache Central, Heartache Central, Heartache Central Time)
Anytime is a hurting time With a hurting heart like mine God knows I'd get over you if only I could find A way to get my hurtin' heart
Off Heartache Central Time
Remember last September When you looked into my eyes I should have known that the love you'd shown Was nothing more than lies
I fell for you and I know it's true That I should have stopped myself But my lonely heart was too alone To hurt all by itself
Now I don't even like you no more But I can't get you off of my mind Baby, you've got me livin' in Heartache Central Time (Heartache Central, Heartache Central, Heartache Central Time)
Anytime is a hurting time With a hurting heart like mine God knows I'd get over you if only I could find A way to get my hurtin' heart
