She was her daddy's girl with her mama's smile
A country boy's dream, she was a lover's child
She had a restless heart for the city lights
Left her country days for the city nights.
There's just too many heartaches in paradise
There's just too much to pay, too high a price
You can spend all your love and never think twice
There's just too many heartaches in paradise .
She loved those daydreams, sunsets
The endless wine, french cigarettes
Then she fell in love with a rich man's lies
He just used her up like his merchandise.
There's just too many heartaches in paradise
There's just too much to pay, too high a price
You can spend all your love and never think twice
There's just too many heartaches in paradise.
Like a fallin' star in the night
Another broken heart fades out of sight
She's goin', she's goin' home.
Oh, there's just too many heartaches in paradise
There's just too much to pay, too high a price
You can spend all your love and never think twice
There's just too many heartaches
Too many heartaches
Just too many heartaches in paradise, oooh.
