Get Set For A Heartache
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It wasn't very long ago that he held me so close
But the little love he had has died for me who loved him most
He left me for another and didn't say goodbye
And if you're next to love him then you'll be next to cry
Get set for a heartache that's all I can say get set for a heartache on its way
[ fiddle - steel ]
He'll make you think he loves you too but you'll find it's not true
You'll learn that when you need him most he'll be with someone new
Your love will all be wasted that's how it was with me
And soon heartaches will tell you you're just his used to be
Get set for a heartache that's all I can say get set for a heartache on its way
