Heartache Tonight ist ein klassischer Rock-Song der US-amerikanischen Band Eagles, der 1979 veröffentlicht wurde. Der Song ist bekannt für seine treibenden Gitarrenriffs und den eingängigen Refrain und handelt von der Suche nach Trost in der Musik und dem Feiern, um über Liebeskummer hinwegzukommen.
Somebody's gonna hurt someone
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone
There's nothin' we can do
Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
Make it come out right
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
Lord, I know
Some people like to stay out late
Some folks can't hold out that long
But nobody wants to go home now
There's too much goin' on
This night is gonna last forever
Last all, last all summer long
Sometimes before the sun comes up
Radio is gonna play that song
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
Lord, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
The moon shinin' bright
So turn out the light and we'll get it right
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
Heartache, baby
Somebody's gonna hurt someone (somebody)
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone
There's nothing we can do
everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night (mmm)
Everybody wants to take a little chance
And make it come out right
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
There's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
Let's go
We can feel around the bushes
We can hit down to the ball
We can leave it in the parking lot
But either way there's gonna be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
Oh, I know
There'll be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight I know
Woo-hoo
Break my heart
