Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
All those wasted tears in the night
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
Because tomorrow your heart will laugh about it
She would play in the backyard with Joe from vis-à-vis
But then he moved to another town
Oh how she cried over her best friend
Thus her mom gave her this good advice:
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
All those wasted tears in the night
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
Because tomorrow your heart will laugh about it
At age eighteen she met Jim and dreamt of no-one but him
In love for the first time, how wonderful it was
But Jim wasn't faithful and thus it was all over
It took her a long time to understand:
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
All those wasted tears in the night
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
Because tomorrow your heart will laugh about it
Until one day there came the one who took her in his arms
Now they're sharing a life full of happiness
And if they have an argument every now and then
She thinks back to that old song:
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
All those wasted tears in the night
Heartache ain't worth the trouble, my darling
Because tomorrow your heart will laugh about it
Because tomorrow your heart will laugh about it
