I'm alone in a house made of sorrow and each room is haunted with you

Should the end of the world come tomorrow I'll be waiting on Heartbreak Avenue

I scattered all our promises behind me there's no use to hope that they'll come true

But if you change your mind you can find me I'll be waiting on Heartbreak Avenue

[ guitar ]

I was warned that some day you'd desert me

I'd wake up and find that we were through

They all told me that you'd only hurt me and I'd end up on Heartbreak Avenue

Someday you may understand this yearning when somebody does the same to you

Then when deep in your heart there's a burning

We'll be neighbors on Heartbreak Avenue
