We should've lit a book of matches
Should've burned it down to dirt
Left forever in the ashes with those rings that didn't work
Now the teardrops in the carpet and fiction in the frames
Just sit there on that cul-de-sac like a monument to pain
Home is where the heartbreak is
Where do you go when all that you know
Has slipped right through your fingertips?
Love found somewhere else to live
It took what we had, it ain't comin' back
Now home is where the heartbreak is
There's a roof over this barstool, comfort in this glass
When they kick me out, it's gonna hurt to feel the past
And that empty bedroom where we made love
Is still haunted by all the ghosts of us
And I can't face it now, I just can't face it now
Home is where the heartbreak is
Where do you go when all that you know
Has slipped right through your fingertips?
Love found somewhere else to live
It took what we had, it ain't comin' back
Now home is where the heartbreak is
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is
Heartbreak, heartbreak is
Heartbreak, heartbreak is)
Oh, sadness ain't much of an address
It's all that you left me with
Instead of a goodbye kiss
Home is where the heartbreak is
Where do you go when all that you know
Has slipped right through your fingertips?
Love found somewhere else to live
It took what we had, it ain't comin' back
Now home is where the heartbreak is
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is) where the heartbreak is
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is) where the heartbreak is
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is)
Don't wanna go home, but I can't stay here
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is) where the heartbreak is
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is) where the heartbreak is
(Heartbreak, heartbreak is)
Now home is where the heartbreak is
