What a Heartache - Dolly Parton

Written by：Dolly Parton

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 heart break you turned out to be

I thought I'd found a safe and loving place inside your heart

And I was warm and willing any time

The same soft lips that kissed me sweet were lying 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 heart break

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

Ooh 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 heart break

Love ain't always what it appears to be

Oh what a heartache you turned out to be

What a heartache what a heartache

What a mistake to think I could believe

What a heartache what a heart break

Like a switchblade that cuts quick and deep

Ooh what a heartache you turned out to be
