Heartache Country written by Alan.s.Robinson

Heartache Country

This is heartache country

A land where nine grey towers, scar my memory

This is heartache country

Where a turgid river of tears toils on towards the sea

This is heartache country

Where I courted in late summer and through autumns finery

This is heartache country

Where walks and talks on leafy lanes drew her close to me

This is heartache country

this is heartache, heartache, heartache, country

This is heartache country

A land where nine great tyrants mock and jeer at me

This is heartache country

And the road that led me to her and that ruinous misery

This is heartache country

And its hard for me to see now that gentle greenery

This is heartache country

Down by the river weir is where you’ll find loves stark body

This is heartache country

this is heartache, heartache, heartache, country, country

this is heartache, heartache, heartache, country

This is heartache country

Where for nine months and many I courted happily

This is heartache country

Where the scars of my one false love score through the scenery

This is heartache country

Where the white blooms are sent skyward from the cloud factory

This is heartache country

And everywhere I look I am reminded that I’m lonely

This is heartache country

this is heartache, heartache, heartache, country

this is heartache, heartache, heartache, country

this is heartache, heartache, heartache, country
