Pain in My Heart Songtext

von David Johansen

Well I keep tryin tryin tryin but I just can't never win
When I come lookin for sin I always wind up disciplined

I shoulda listened
I shoulda took my friends advice
I shouldn't have come back
To try and melt that heart as cold as ice

And I know
Cause It's a pain in my heart
And it hurts
Like someone 's torn it apart
And what's worse
I felt it right from the start
And I know
Thats just no way to live
Cause I have tried tried tried but I just cant never win
And its enough to make you start to believe in retribution

I shouldn't be here
I could be in there having a blast
I shouldn't have come back
To try and liven up this dying romance

And I know
I shouldnt talk so loud
And I know
I shouldnt act so proud
And I know
I shouldnt wonder how to know
That that's no way to live

Well I know
Cause it's a pain in my heart
And it hurts
Like someone's torn it apart
And what's worse
I felt it right from the start
And I know
I just can't never win

I said so come on boys
I'll buy you a drink
Come on boys
Dont let me think
Come on boys
I'm starting to sink
And I know
I cant go back again

Well I know
Cause It's a pain in my heart
And it hurts
Like someone's torn it apart
And what's worse
I felt it right from the start
And I know
Thats just no way to live
