Story Behind the Song
I was offered a free recording session at a studio here in Denmark. I decided that I wanted some new material, so I wrote and arranged this one the day before the session.
Lyrics
Look at all those people,
In the crowd by the record machine,
See that redhead girl over there,
Shes the prettiest Ive ever seen
Look at how the guy by her side,
Puts his arm around her neck,
See her eyes shining in the sun,
Thats how Ill resurrect..
I watch them go by everyday,
Oh, she always takes my breath away,
I know shed break my heart again,
Leave me standing in the rain
I tend the bar at Heartache Café,
And through the tear-stained windows the sky seems grey,
I spend my days standing in line,
Oh, I remember when the redhead was mine!..
Ever since my childhood,
Been mistreated by every girl Ive known,
And I never really understood,
Why every chance for love I had was blown
All I did was taking care of myself,
Oh, but I needed some real love and care,
Funny how things get so clearer now,
When youre no longer there
See you go by everyday,
Oh, you always take my breath away,
Although youd leave me in pain,
I wish that youd come back again.
I tend the bar at Heartache Café,
And through the tear-stained windows the sky seems grey,
I spend my days standing in line,
Cause I remember when the redhead was mine!..
