There we were all three of us sitting side by side
Three guys who have loved her but to someone she lied
Now everybody's wondering just who's the lonely guy
So will the real Mr. Heartache please stand up and cry

The real Mr. Heartache is every guy she's known
Loved by her left by her with a heartache all his own
Every time I hear that question the number multiplies
Will the real Mr. Heartache please stand up and cry

There we were all three of us standing side by side
While six little teardrops tickled from our eyes
And I even see a stranger that seems to qualify
So will the real Mr. Heartache please stand up and cry
