Can't Fake the Heartache Year: 2005 | Run Time: 3:03
Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2005

the rain is fallin' on your street
the rain is fallin' at your feet
it wasn't long ago we walked a different shore
now it's more than you can take
no you can't forsake
and you can not fake
the heartache

it should have lasted forever
why don't things last forever?
in the ocean air that tangled up your hair
is there sand in every kiss?
we crashed inside the waves
no you cannot fake
the heartache

I know it's hard to love me
I'm not good for your health
I know it's hard to love me baby
it's hard to love yourself

now it's just ticking clocks
and some sad songs on the jukebox
we sail for memories on a lonely sea
where the waters are never safe
it's more than you can take
cause you cannot fake
the heartache
