That's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.

They told me I was such a fool to love you.
They said that you're the kind who'd never be true.
Pretty soon the day would come when I'd be the sorry one.
But I said that I'm not afraid.

Well, that's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.

I went ahead and my heart opened the door.
I gave you so much love. No one could love more.
You pretended to be mine. How could you be so unkind,
with all the other girls you play?

Well, that's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.

Woah-oh-oh, that's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.

I know you're not sincere and you'll never be.
But still I want those kisses so desperately.
I could never let you go, baby even though I know
every rule in love you disobeyed.

Well, that's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made.
That's how heartaches are made . . .
