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 this hurtin' heart
off heartache central time
