Caroline Herring - Heartbreak Tonight Lyrics

Different and good

Easy to please

A cheerleader’s skirt on the backseat

A childhood worth forgetting

Her twenties damn depressing

She eyes another age

She turns another page



You change your name

You don’t stay the same

So it’s heartbreak tonight

And tomorrow’s new beginnings

It’s supper on the stove

And a gambler’s winnings



Raised on the farm

Raised on Enjoli

Raised on je ne sais pas

And some joie de vivre

Now for the first time

The end is in sight

You give me your traditions

I’ll hand off my ambitions

‘Cause it feels so right



You change your name

You don’t stay the same

So it’s heartbreak tonight

And tomorrow’s new beginnings

It’s supper on the stove

And a gambler’s winnings



It was when you forgot

To feel like a fool

Or notice if they were watching you

Looking so good

In front of that mirror

But living in the back room

You begin to disappear



You change your name

You don’t stay the same

So it’s heartbreak tonight

And tomorrow’s new beginnings

It’s supper on the stove

And a gambler’s winnings

Her winnings
