misery makes its home in my heart
The door to my heart was open Open wide much wider than wide (I said the door was open) And I had been praying and hoping That your love would come walking inside I should have locked my heart I should have thrown away the key Instead I let you walk on through I thought your love was true But it was misery Ooh, heartaches, heartbreaks That's all I've known Misery makes my heart its home (I said the door was open, it was wide open) My heart had room inside And to fill it with love I was willing I wanted it to be occupied By a love that was strong and fulfilling I should have shut you out Detained you with a strong defence Instead my heart gave shelter to A love I felt was true In every sense Don't you know that Heartaches, heartbreaks That's all I've known Misery makes my heart its home (My heart had room inside now, it had room inside) Now I've cried a river No it's more like a sea Tears flow by the thousand Since my heart is housing this misery Misery Let me tell you about Heartaches, heartbreaks That's all I've known Misery makes my heart its home Heartaches, heartbreaks That's all I've known Misery makes my heart its home Heartbreaks That's all I've known Misery makes my heart its home
