Shadows are fallin' all over town

Another night these blues got me down

Oh misery ... I sure could use some company

Since he's been gone I ain't been the same

I carry the weight like an ol' ball and chain

Guess it's all meant to be ...

For love to cause me misery

Oh, misery ... Oh, misery ...

Tell me, why does my heart make a fool out of me?

Seems it's my destiny,

For love to cause me misery

Oh, I've been down this road before

Where the passion turns into pain

And each time I saw love walk out the door

I swore I'd never get caught again

But ain't it true ... It takes what it takes

And sometimes, we get too smart too late

One more heartache for me

Another night in misery

Misery ... Misery ...

Tell me, why does my heart make a fool out of me?

Misery ... Misery ...

Tell me, why does my heart make a fool of me?

Seems it's my destiny,

For love to cause misery

Guess it's all meant to be,

For love to cause me misery
