About Livin' With a Heartache

"Livin' with a Heartache" is a song written by Carl Wilson and Randy Bachman for the American rock band the Beach Boys, one of two collaborations between the two writers. It was recorded from August 27–29 at Bachman's home studio known as "The Barn" in Lynden, Washington with two further sessions at Rumbo Studios in November and December 1979.

You left me alone with nothin' but a heartache
Don't leave me alone livin' with a heartache
After all this time
I still wish you were mine
I miss you every day
Come back to me and stay

[Chorus]
Livin' with a heartache
Livin' with a heartache

I've loved you for so long
It's hard to believe that you've really gone
I'll try to change to what I should be
I'm no good alone you know-a everyone sees

That you left me alone with nothin' but a heartache
(Nothin' but a heartache)
Don't leave me alone livin' with a heartache
(With a heartache)

After all this time I still wish you were mine
I miss you every day
Come back to me and stay

[Chorus]

Please come back and stay with me
Give our love a chance and maybe you'll see
My love is true like a heart of gold
I promise you a love you can hold

Still you left me alone with nothin' but a heartache
(With nothin' but a heartache)
But don't leave me alone livin' with a heartache
(With a heartache)
After all this time
I still wish you were mine
I miss you every day
Come back to me and stay

[Chorus]

We are strangers since we've been apart
And I can't live inside this broken heart
So now I say what's on my mind
It's up to you are we wasting time

You left me alone with nothin' but a heartache
(With nothin' but a heartache)
Now don't leave me alone livin' with a heartache
(With a heartache)
After all this time
I still wish you were mine
I miss you every day
Come back to me and stay

[Chorus]

Don't leave me livin' with a heartache

The Beach Boys are an American rock band, formed in 1961 in Hawthorne, California.
