What A Heartache

Lyrics

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
 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
 What a heartache, what a heartache
 Like a switchblade that cuts so quick and deep
 What a heartache, what a heartbreak
 Love ain't always what it appears to be
 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
 Is it too late for you and me?
 What a heartache you turned out to be
 Oh, what a heartache you turned out to be
 What a heartache, what a heartache
 Love is two-faced and easy to believe
 What a heartache, oh, what a heartbreak
 Love ain't always what it appears to be
 What a heartache you turned out to be
 What a heartache, oh, what a heartache
 What a mistake to think I could believe
 What a heartache, ooh, what a heartbreak
 Like a switchblade that cuts so quick and deep
 What a heartache you turned out to be
