“That’s When Your Heartaches Begin” is a 1937 song by Fred Fisher, William Raskin and Billy Hill. It was recorded and released the same year by Shep Fields Rippling Rhythm. The song first became popular following a 1941 recording by The Ink Spots.
The song was recorded by Elvis Presley on at least three occasions during the 1950’s, and was one of two songs he recorded on acetate in July 1953, prior to the beginning of his professional career.
Lyrics
If you find your sweetheart in the arms of a friend
That’s when your heartaches begin
When dreams of a lifetime must come to an end
That’s when your heartaches beginLove is a thing you’d never can share
When you bring a friend into your love affair
That’s the end of your sweetheart
That’s the end of your friend
That’s when your heartaches beginIf you find your sweetheart
In the arms of your best friend, your brother
That’s, that’s when your heartaches beginAnd you know, when all your dreams
When all your dreams of a lifetime
Must, must all come to an end
Yeah that’s, that’s when your heartaches beginOh, you see love is a thing that
That you never can share
And you know, when you bring a friend
Into your love affair
That’s the end of your sweetheart
That’s the end of your friend
Well, that’s when your heartaches begin
