Heartbreaks can't be far away   'Cause heartache just walked in.      Sittiin' in the dim cafe    Listenin' while the jukebox plays   The songs I like to hear when I'm alone   Thinkin' of my wasted past    Wonderin' if someday at last   I'll win the sweetest love    I've ever known.      Then all at once I saw him   On the arm with my best friend   Heartbreak can't be far away    'Cause heartaches just walked in.      I watched her as she smiled at him    And though the tiny lights were dim   I could see the love light shining in her eyes   With aching heart and trembling hand    It wasn't hard to understand   Why she'd someday be his wife.      And as the teardrops started    I thought of things that might have been   Heartbreak can't be far away    'Cause heartaches just walked in.      --- Instrumental ---      And then my poor heart skipped a beat    She took the table next to me   She didn't even notice I was there   But she looked around and just by chance    Our eyes met in a casual glance   She smiled and it was more than I could bare.      How could he know the way I feel    To him I'm just a friend   Heartbreak can't be far away    'Cause heartaches just walked in.      I smiled and turned the other way   My tremblin' lips just couldn't say    The way I feel, I wanted to explain   And so I guess you'll never know   How just a feiend could love you so   And hopes that he is happy just the same.      But here with just a friend   For me it is the end   Heartbreak can't be far away    'Cause heartaches just walked in.,,
