[00:07.050]It's three in the morning
[00:09.450]On a Saturday night
[00:12.560]The laundry and dishes just
[00:16.610]Ain't worth the fight
[00:19.120]Headlights are dancing
[00:23.270]Across the living room wall
[00:26.560]And that lone distant highway
[00:30.250]Just echoes the hall
[00:32.900]Now the babies are sleeping
[00:37.410]On back in their rooms
[00:40.450]And he's been passed out
[00:43.720]On the sofa since noon
[00:47.330]And nobody told her about
[00:51.760]None of these things
[00:54.760]And God only knows she'd leave there
[00:58.200]If heartaches had wings
[01:01.150]If heartaches had wings she would fly
[01:09.150]Away like some bird through the night
[01:14.590]It's a long long way from a young girl's dream
[01:21.310]And she'd surely leave there
[01:24.950]If heartaches had wings
[01:28.800]
[01:32.860]She grew up believing
[01:35.000]That wishes come true
[01:37.970]A knight on a white horse
[01:41.870]Like some young girls do
[01:44.970]So she married her the captain
[01:48.960]Of the school football team
[01:52.160]Just like she was supposed to
[01:55.410]As homecoming queen
[01:58.450]If heartaches had wings she would fly
[02:06.190]Away like some bird through the night
[02:12.340]It's a long long way from a young girl's dream
[02:19.050]And she'd surely leave there
[02:22.340]If heartaches had wings
[02:25.390]
[02:55.480]She turns out the lights
[02:59.340]And she lays down in bed
[03:02.630]The sounds of that highway
[03:05.240]Still run through her head
[03:08.770]She closes her eyes and
[03:13.180]She whispers those prayers
[03:16.830]And falls asleep wondering does anyone care
[03:23.480]If heartaches had wings she would fly
[03:30.440]Away like some bird through the night
[03:36.530]It's a long long way from a young girl's dream
[03:42.820]And she'd surely leave there
[03:46.680]If heartaches had wings
[03:51.290]And she'd surely leave there
[03:54.700]If heartaches had wings
