[Verse 1]
Each time that I hold you close, here in my arms
I'm building heartaches
Each time that I kiss your lips, so sweet and warm
I'm building heartaches

[Chorus]
And when you say you love me
We both know it's a lie
And just a dream from which I must awake
That each sweet word you tell me
Is a heartache in disguise
So I'm building heartaches

[Verse 2]
When people ask me what I'm doing, here's what I tell
I'm building heartaches
And each kiss you give me is a tear that hasn't fell
So I'm building heartaches

[Chorus]
And when you say you love me
We both know it's a lie
And just a dream from which I must awake
That each sweet word you tell me
Is a heartache in disguise
So I'm building heartaches
