Shadows are falling all over town Another night and these blues got me down Oh, misery I sure could use some company Oh sing it girl Since he's been gone I ain't been the same I carry the weight like an old ball and chain Guess it's all meant to be For love to cause such misery Oh misery Oh misery Tell me why does my heart make a fool of me Seems it's my destiny For love to cause me misery And oh I've been down this road before With a passion that 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 to leave One more heartache for me Another night of misery Oh, and oh misery Oh, misery Tell me why does my heart make a fool of me Oh misery Oh misery Tell me why, why, why, why, why, why does this Heart make a fool of me Seems it's my destiny For love to cause misery, oh Misery Guess it's all meant to be For love to cause me misery, oh, no, yeah Misery
