It hurts as bad as you'd think it would
And it's gonna hang around a long, long time
It hurts just as bad as it possibly could
Bringin' back the days when you were mine
You're talkin' tears, I've cried a few
But something deep inside of you
Was whispering to someone new
A someone who'd be true to you
You've taken all my pride with you
Now my whole life's in wide review
Oh yeah
It hurts as bad as you'd think it would
You just might find that out some day
It hurts just as bad as it possibly could
And you'll be the one who stands to pay
The day I knew our love was gone
The candle glow, the curtains drawn
A silhouette, not one but two
That day I knew our love was through
You've taken all my pride with you
And left me bruised and battered blue
Ohhhhhh, yeah
It hurts as bad as you'd expect it would
And it's gonna linger on a long, long time
It hurts just as bad as anything possibly could
Diggin' up the dreams when you were mine
I thought out love was tried and true
I thought I could rely on you
I didn't wanna see this
Treacherous, ugly side of you
You're talkin' tears, I've cried a few
Cause something deep inside of you
Has taken all my pride with you
If you could feel what I've been through
Ohhh, I don't think I can make it alone
Cause it'll be as bad as you thought it would
And maybe you'll find that out someday
It'll hurt just as bad as it possibly could
You'll be the one that's left behind
Cause you didn't see the warning signs
Deserted by the hurting kind this way

Fall Down the Cracks

(words & music: t.h. gorman ©2021 teztunes)
When you fall thru the cracks
It ain’t easy to come back
Because every new tomorrow’s
One step forward, two steps back
When you fall down the cracks
It ain’t easy comin’ back
Because every new tomorrow,
One step forward, two steps back
If you wonder what the world is like
When you’ve fallen down the cracks
And the view from up on Easy St.’s
A perspective that you lack
When all your dreams have disappeared for good
And you’ve taken that for fact
And you’re always playing catch up
With no time to catch your breath
There’s a fire burning down the house
And you’re afraid you’ll catch your death
Wallet’s flatter than a pancake
And your smile’s turned upside down
And you’ve lost your voice and anyway
There’s no caring ear around
You just fall down the cracks
Fall down thru the cracks
When you fall down the cracks
It ain’t easy to come back
Because every new tomorrow’s
One step forward, two steps back
When you fall down the cracks
It ain’t easy to come back
Because every new tomorrow,
One step forward, two steps back
If you wonder what the world is like
When you’re fallen down the cracks
Keep on truckin’ down a dead end street
Til you’re on the losing track
Starved for love and starved for life
You just waste away and you slip right
Through the cracks
When your life’s a world of broken things
And your world’s a life of loss
There’s no compass where you’re going
Amid the memories you’ve tossed
When you can’t remember where you’ve been
Or what seas you might have crossed
You just fall through the cracks
If you’d care to slip the Guccis off
And try mine on for size
You might lose the lightness in your steps
And mayhaps you’ll realize
That if you fall just deep enough, you’ll find
No-one’s around to sympathize
You just fall down the cracks
Fall down thru the cracks
When you fall thru the cracks
It ain’t easy to come back
Because every new tomorrow’s
One step forward, two steps back
When you fall down the cracks
It ain’t easy comin’ back
Because every new tomorrow,
One step forward, two steps back

Tez Howes Moncton, New Brunswick
I'm just an old Canadian fart writing & recording tunes, trying to capture the vibe of pre-millennial popular musics, rock,
blues, jazz, funk, country, pop, etc. Lumiere and Knowhere are primarily indie pop, and The New Codiac Blues is a collection of blues-based tunes.
They're dotted with selected collabs with uber-talented friends in the UK, USA, Australia and Bulgaria of a variety of sounds.
