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
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 quick and deep
Oh what a heartache what a heartbreak
Love ain't always what it appears to be
Oh what a heartache you turned out to be
It just goes to show that you never can tell
Cause 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
Just 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 you turned out to be
What a heartache what a heartache
Love is two-faced and easy to deceive
Oh what a heartache what a heartache
What a mistake to think I could believe
What a heartache what a heartache
Like a switchblade that cuts quick and deep
Oh what a heartache you turned out to be
What a heartache what a heartache what a heartache what a heartache
What a heartache oh what a heartache you turned out to be
Oh what a heartache oh what a heartache
What a heart break you turned out to be
