What song do you hear when your heart is aching?

It came over me in the wine section of my co-op: heartache, longing, desire, passion, lost love. A bottle of merlot, tall and dark brought it on. A warm September evening, table for two, stone patio, lighted fountain in the pond down through the bamboo shoots. We talked from twilight to dawn: hearts open, plans made, lives changed, futures assured. Then times changed

You Angel You
The way you walk and the way you talk
It sure plays on my mind.

Things Have Changed
I hurt easy, I just don't show it
You can hurt someone and not even know it

Abandoned Love
I march in the parade of liberty
But as long as I love you I'm not free.

Boots of Spanish Leather
Well, if you, my love, must think that-a-way,
I'm sure your mind is roamin'.

Heart of Mine
Heart of mine go back where you been,
It'll only be trouble for you if you let her in.

When the Night Comes Falling From the Sky
For all eternity I think I will remember
That icy wind that's howling in your eye.

Something¿s Burning, Baby
We've reached the edge of the road, baby, where the pasture begins
Where charity is supposed to cover up a multitude of sins

One More Cup of Coffee (Valley Below)
Your voice is like a meadowlark
But your heart is like an ocean
Mysterious and dark.

I grabbed a jug of table wine and headed for the checkout counter. What song do you hear when your heart is aching?

From Oscar Montes, "When my heart is aching I hear:"

You're a Big Girl Now
Oh I know where I can find you
In somebody's room

If You See Her Say Hello
She left here last early spring is living there I hear
Say for me that I'm all right though things get kind of slow

Love Sick
I'm walkin' through streets that are dead
Walkin', walkin' with you in my head

I Threw It All Away
¿I once held her in my arms
¿She said she would always stay

Abandoned Love
The Spanish moon is rising on the hill
But my heart is a-telling me I love ya still.

Standing In The Doorway
The ghost of our old love has not gone away
Don't look like it will any time soon

Million Miles
You took the silver, you took the gold
You left me standin' out in the cold

'Til I Fell In Love With You
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense
I feel like the whole world gonna end up against the fence

Can't Wait
And there's some people all around
Some on their way up, some on their way down
