It's hard describing a heartache
all 'cause it's a one of a kind of thing
A serious injury and a whole lot of endless pain

If it was a storm, I'd compare it to a hurricane
Oh it's even got a name

If it was a drink, it would be a strong one,
If it was a sad song, it would be a long one,
If it was a color, it would be a deep, deep blue,
But if we're talking 'bout a heartache, it would be you

If there was a full moon, it would be a total eclipse,
If it was a tidal wave, it would sink a thousand ships,
If it was a blizzard, it would be a record breaking cold,
if it was a lie, it would be the biggest story you ever told

If it was a drink, it would be a strong one,
If it was a sad song, it would be a long one,
If it was a color, it would be a deep, deep blue,
But if we're talking 'bout a heartache, it would be you

If it was a color, it would be a deep, deep blue,
But if we're talking 'bout a heartache,
It would be you
