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

Bridge:

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

To be continued...
