I thought I saw the promise of forever in your eyes
|
I thought that I was sure of what I saw
|
You led me to believe that I was special in your life
|
So I left my heart wide open for the fall
|
What a heartache you turned out to be
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
What a heartache, what a heartache
|
Love ain't always what it appears to be
|
What a heartache you turned out to be
|
|
I thought I'd found a safe and lovin' place inside your heart
|
And I was warm and willing anytime
|
The same soft lips that kissed me sweet
|
Were lyin' from the start
|
But I swear I thought your love was genuine
|
What a heartache you turned out to be
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
What a heartache, what a heartache:
|
Like a switchblade that cuts quick and deep
|
Ooo, what a heartache you turned out to be
|
|
It just goes to show that you never can tell
|
I really thought that I knew you well
|
I still can't believe I could be deceived so easily
|
Are all these wishes I'm wishin' to myself
|
Like rusty coins in a wishin' well
|
Wishes come true, they come false as well
|
It's too late for you and me
|
Oh, what a heartache, ooo, what a heart break
|
Love is two-faced and easy to believe
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
What a heartache, ooo, what a heartache
|
What a mistake to think I could believe
|
Ooo, what a heartache you turned out to be
|
Oh, what a heartache you turned out to be
|
|
