To ease the
pain that heartaches bring
from broken love affairs
To many make the same mistake
and try to drown their cares
The liquor flows,
their money goes
And teardrops fall like rain
One thing for sure, this is no cure
It's just to ease the pain
A crowded place, the friendly face
Of one who wears a smile
The warmth and bliss from
someone's kiss
will linger for a while
A drink or two with someone new
might not be in vain
But this won't heal a hurt that's real,
it's just to ease the pain
A broken heart will fall apart
When left alone to grieve
To ease the pain and hide the shame
You'll live in make -believe
The tears you'll hide, but deep inside
The torture will remain
There's no mistake, the trick you take
Is just to ease the pain
In every life where pain and strife
can hold the winning hand
The soul will cry and wonder
why the things that fate had planned
The doubt s and fears and bitter tears
may be an endless chain
But living fast won't hide the past,
it's just to ease the pain.
