Shadows are falling all over town
Another night the blues got me down
Oh misery... I sure could use some company

Since you've 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

ooh Misery... ooh 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 up 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
Seems it's my destiny...
For love to cause me misery...
Guess it's all meant to be for love to cause me misery
