"Heartaches Have Just Started" Lyrics

(Buck Owens - Don Rich)

Like a baby goes for candy
That's the way I went for you
It's a wonder I'm still livin'
After all you've put me through.

It would take a mighty miracle
To make things turn out right
For loneliness is here
And happiness is out of sight.

Oh, the heartaches have just started
And the worst is yet to come
The tears have started fallin'
We've got true love on the run.

Up to now you've had me hangin'
But now you've run out of rope
And when you see the backdoor swingin'
You'll know I've run out of hope.

--- Instrumental ---

I've done everything I could
To save this love affair of ours
I took you home and loved you
Wined and dined you by the hours.

Had you caviar and champagne
That's the best that I could do
But the best I had to offer
Wasn't good enough for you.

Oh, the heartaches have just started
And the worst is yet to come
The tears have started fallin'
We've got true love on the run.

Up to now you've had me hangin'
But now you've run out of rope
And when you see the backdoor swingin'
You'll know I've run out of hope.

When you see the backdoor swingin'
You'll know I've run out of hope...
