Verse 1
Bad news on a bar stool
Got me rushing in like a damn fool
I always do what I shouldn’t
If I was smart then I wouldn’t
Use them lonely words
Every time there’s a time it might be true
Chorus
You look like a heartache waiting to happen
Another mistake, I’m gonna make my move anyway
Mixing my emotions like that vodka and your drink
Girl, I want to stay but I should probably walk away
From this heartache waiting to happen
You’re just a heartache waiting to happen, baby
Verse 2
I can see you drinking cold beer
Dancing in my bedroom
In your birthday suit in the morning
No storm like this needs a warning
I’m always falling too fast
No, I know it’ll never last
But this ain’t nothing new
Chorus
You look like a heartache waiting to happen
Another mistake, I’m gonna make my move anyway
Mixing my emotions like that vodka and your drink
Girl, I want to stay but I should probably walk away
From this heartache waiting to happen
You’re just a heartache waiting to happen, baby
Bridge
Your another lesson I’ll never learn
I can see the fire but I still get burn
No other man would’ve been
Here I go again, jumping, running
To a heartache waiting to happen
You’re just a heartache waiting to happen
Chorus
You’re just a heartache waiting to happen
Another mistake, I’m gonna make my move anyway
Mixing my emotions like that vodka and your drink
Girl, I want to stay but I should probably walk away
From this heartache waiting to happen
You’re just a heartache waiting to happen, baby
Heartache waiting to happen
You’re just a heartache waiting to happen
