[Intro]
Ooh

[Verse 1]
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 (I said the door was open)
That your love would come walking inside (I said the door was wide open)

[Pre-Chorus]
I should have locked my heart (I should have locked my heart, ooh)
I should have thrown away the key (I should have locked my heart, ooh)
Instead I let you walk on through (I should have locked my heart, ooh)
I thought your love was true
But it was misery (I should have locked my heart, ooh)

[Chorus]
Ooh, heartaches, heartbreaks
That's all I've known
Misery makes my heart its home, yeah (I said the door was open)
Ooh, yeah (It was wide open)

[Verse 2]
My heart had room inside
And to fill it with love I was willing (My heart had room inside, now)
I wanted it to be occupied (My heart had room inside, now)
By a love that was strong and fulfilling (My heart had so much room inside)
[Pre-Chorus]
I should have shut you out (I should have shut you out, ooh)
Detained you with a strong defence (I should have shut you out, ooh)
Instead my heart gave shelter to a love I felt was true (I should have shut you out, ooh)
In every sense (I should have shut you out, ooh)

[Chorus]
Don't you know that heartaches, heartbreaks
That's all I've known
Misery makes my heart its home, yeah (My heart had room inside now)
Ooh, yeah (It had room inside)

[Bridge]
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 my heart is housing)
Ooh, misery (Misery my heart is housing)
Ooh, misery (Misery my heart is housing)

[Chorus]
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
Ooh, misery makes my heart its home

Ooh, heartbreaks (Heartaches, heartbreaks)
That's all I've known
Misery makes my heart its home
