I've found a place to live
I got it the hard way.
A permanent address to give
I got it for always.
Nobody can tear me loose
They tell me there's no escape
On Heartache Avenue.

I live alone rent free
There's nothing to pay here.
One thing you need to be
If you want to stay here.
So lonely you can't pretend
That you're a true resident
On Heartache Avenue.

Leave me alone 'cos I'm here where I belong.
I feel at home on the street where love is gone.
It's a hard luck story of Heartache Avenue.

There's always room to let
Cos nobody goes there.
One thing you need to get
A ticket to nowhere:
No money, no credit cards
The price is one broken heart
On Heartache Avenue.

Leave me alone 'cos I'm here where I belong.
I feel at home on the street where love is gone.
It's a hard luck story of Heartache Avenue.
On Heartache Avenue.
