Every day I say, “Don’t look her way,”
But every day I don’t succeed
‘Cause though I know that I’m no good for you
I think that you’d be so good for me

And though I try to hide my wand’ring mind
And keep my feelings grounded,
It’s hard as you walk by, each time,
To see your waist without my arms around it

This heartache is all I’ve gotten
Your lips look so naked
so naked without mine on ‘em.
This heartache has turned my insides inside out
For now it’s just an unrequited, gotta-keep-this-quiet
Now I know what Frankie Valli sang about.
This heartache.

You see, in all the years that got me here
Each one’s brought something new
But up ’til now none’s been so kind, I find,
as the one that’s brought me here to you

Don’t understand the plans of the guiding hand
Which destines if I lose or win
But I’ll claim my little victory over the powers that be
The day I my fingers run across your skin

But this heartache is all I’ve gotten
Your lips look so naked
so naked without mine on ‘em.
This heartache has turned my insides inside out
For now it’s just an unrequited, gotta-keep-this-quiet
Now I know what Frankie Valli sang about:

“You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you
You’d be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much”
This heartache.

This heartache is all I’ve gotten
Your lips look so naked
so naked without mine on ‘em.
This heartache has turned my insides inside out
For now it’s just an unrequited, gotta-keep-this-quiet
Now I know what Frankie Valli sang about.

This heartache:
You know it’s tangled my insides.
This heartache:
And I thank God, I thank God, “I thank God I’m alive”
This heartache.
