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
