I heard you saying you're thinking 'bout getting out   Leaving him and your old life behind   Well, if you want to go without any doubts   You'd better know what you're talking about      You're talking tears, you're talking cold and lonely nights   Where the heartaches don't leave when morning comes   You're talking, losing what you never thought you'd find   You're talking bad times when you're talking goodbye      You feel like you're living somebody else's dream   And all that's gold has turned into rust   But when you're talking about tossing that ring   You'd better know just what that means      You're talking tears, you're talking cold and lonely nights   Where the heartaches don't leave when morning comes   You're talking, losing what you never thought you'd find   You're talking bad times when you're talking goodbye      There was a time when I had a choice to make   I let love slip through my hands   So if you want to talk about making mistakes   That's one thing I understand      You're talking tears, you're talking cold and lonely nights   Where the heartaches don't leave when morning comes   You're talking, losing what you never thought you'd find   You're talking bad times when you're talking goodbye
