You're back in town again spreadin' talk around That I'm still in love with you though you let me down I hate to admit it but I guess the talk is true Or else you couldn't make my heart ache the way you do I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart That left me for somebody new I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart And that's why I'm feeling so blue Why did you turn up again I was doing fine I'd found another sweetheart to drive you from my mind I thought that I'd forgotten you but I know that it's not true Or else you couldn't make my heart ache the way you do I've got a new heartache...
