Vast Stretches of Broken Heart Songtext

von Jimmy LaFave

Vast stretches of broken heart
Misery in between
Miles and miles of sorrow
On this poor boy's dream
Every time I get a good thing
It never lasts too long
Every woman I meet
Well they always say I treat them wrong

You know I try to be good
You know I try to be kind
But they always accuse me
Of having other girls on my mind
Even if it were true
I want it understood
Just because a man looks doesn't mean that he's up to no good

Vast stretches of broken heart
Misery in between
Miles and miles of sorrow
On this poor boy's dream
Every time I get a good thing
It never lasts too long
Every woman I meet
Well they always say I treat them wrong

I'm gonna keep on looking
I know there's a woman somewhere
Who's going to treat me right
Show a little love and care
Smooth out my rough edges
You know I'm not that bad
Take me home, baby, I'll be the best dog you ever had

Vast stretches of broken heart
Misery in between
Miles and miles of sorrow
On this poor boy's dream
Every time I get a good thing
It never lasts too long
Every woman I meet
Well they always say I treat them wrong
