In store signing autographs at the mall Next in line was a fly girl standing tall Signed my name and said give me a call baby ya know the girl screamed and fainted panic on the floor The body guard pulled us the back door I never saw her anymore- it was an in-store heartbreak Live at five interview for Channel 2 Saw a cutie thought she was on the T.V. cre She said after the show (I'll be waiting for you) cool After the show she got into the car and what a scence I didn't know she was only thirteen It was a young girl heartbreak People think we don't get lonely But we're far away from home One minute 20,000 people But then they go home, we're alone It's off to another city Where everybody knows my name But when I meet that perfect honey Is it me she wants or is it my fame Girlies and groupies and parties all night Is the life that can lead you to a N.E. heartbreak From city to city our friends and our fans they're the ones who can keep us from having N.E. heartbreak Center stage N.E. was groovin' The beatwas hard And the girlies were movin' There she was third row center coolin' She was cold Last note of the last song House lights up they came on When I looked she was gone It was a 3rd row heartbreak People think our life is easy 'cause they think we've got it made But we're living underpressure Just to be on top And to give the best that we can give you And to never let you down We'll keep strivin' for perfection N.E. heartbreak is coming to your town Beware of N.E. heartbreak Spreading fast and there's no cure No need to run from heartache It's gonna get you, get you for sure Called up my girl and said Meet me on the tour I got a suite cold chillin' on the 50th floior And I'll leave your ticket at the door And baby don't forget the pumps She lost her backstage pass and the room key Then got stopped by hotel security And I spent the whole night lonely And it was a hotel heartbreak
