Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Riding in the sunset Both hands on the wheel Lost in a memory Of the way that you feel, oh am I crazy? Pulled in the parking lot Her car's parked on the street I forget about those bitter tears When I hear her talking so sweet Oh, isn't that my heart wondering? Am I crazy for wondering? Tell me why I keep running Back to the heartbreak kid Step through the doorway A hush falls on the room Everybody here wants to see Who'll make the first move Oh, isn't that my heart wondering? Am I crazy for wondering? Tell me why I keep running Back to the heartbreak kid First the fire, then the rain I let the pleasure ease the pain Across the room her eyes meet mine I play the fool one more time Isn't that my heart wondering? Am I crazy for wondering? Tell me why I keep running Back to the heartbreak, back to the heartbreak kid
