Headin' for Heartbreak

 

Well, I’m headin’ for heartbreak

And I’m steppin’ on the gas

Headin’ for it wide awake

Derailin’ the train first-class

 

Drivin’ head-first into the wall

Expect nothin’ but a blast

I ain’t slowin’ down at all

Clear the road, I’m comin’ fast

 

I’m headin’ for heartbreak again

Goin’ back to Heartbreak Town

And I’m welcomin’ the pain

Askin’ for another round

 

I’m flyin’ the plane like a brute

And the runway’s all rundown

And I ain’t got no parachute

Clear the way, I’m comin’ down

 

Yeah, I’m headin’ for heartbreak

I’ve been searchin’ all around

For somethin’ to soothe my ache

And heartbreak is all I found

 

I’m sinkin’ like a cinder block

I’m not even tryin’ to swim

So it shouldn’t come as a shock

That my chances are pretty slim

 

Girl, I’m headin’ for heartbreak

And I’m headin’ there gladly

‘Cause it’s heartbreak for your sake

Since you got nothin’ else for me

 

Oh, I’m headin’ for heartbreak

Don’t you try to change my mind

I’m only takin’ what’s there to take

And that heartbreak is all mine
