You got a reputation Goin' all over town For buildin' up a love affair So you can't tear it down The hearts you've stepped on one by one Are prices that you'd pay But still I'm so in love with you My little miss heartache Little miss heartache They call you and I know it's true Little miss heartache You're lovely in your shades of blue The hearts you've stepped on one by one Are prices that you'd pay But still I'm so in love with you My little miss heartache Someday I know you'll fall for someone I hope it's me And all the other loves you've known Are just a memory A world that's filled with happiness Is here for you to take Please let me be the next in line I love you miss heartache Little miss heartache They call you and I know it's true Little miss heartache You're lovely in your shades of blue The hearts you've stepped on one by one Are prices that you'd pay But still I'm so in love with you My little miss heartache
