(Jody Alan Sweet)      It's three in the morning on a Saturday night   The laundry and dishes just ain't worth the fight   Headlights are dancing across the living room wall   And that lone distant highway just echos the hall   Now the babies are sleeping on back in their rooms   And he's been passed out on the sofa since noon   And nobody told her about none of these things   And God only knows she'd leave there if heartaches had wings      If heartaches had wings she would fly   Away like some bird through the night   It's a long long way from a young girl's dream   And she'd surely leave there if heartaches had wings      She grew up believing that wishes come true   A knight on a white horse like some young girls do   So she married her the captain of the school football team   Just like she was supposed to as homecoming queen      She turns out the lights and she lays down in bed   The sounds of that highway still run through her head   She closes her eyes and she whispers those prayers   And falls asleep wondering does anyone care      And God knows she leave there if heartaches had wings
