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

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
