English Translation
Heartbreak Avenue ooh
I really don’t think I’m the problem
I know I come and go pretty often
How many times can I give my all in
I’m so tired oh
Patience and pain they come as a package
I really don’t think I’m the problem
I know I come and go pretty often
How many times can I give my all in
I’m so tired oh
Patience and pain they come as a package
Maybe I’m just a hopeless romantic
Chasing the sun when I know it’s you I want
It’s you I want
I’m done settling settling
Done pedaling backpedaling
Done settling settling
Chasing the sun when I know it’s you I want
It’s you I want
I’m done settling settling
Done pedaling backpedaling
Done settling settling
I really really can’t figure me out
I’m wondering how
Every time I try to take another route yeah
All the roads lead right back to you
I’m seeing all the signs but I ignore the truth
And end up on Heartbreak Avenue ooh
I’m wondering how
Every time I try to take another route yeah
All the roads lead right back to you
I’m seeing all the signs but I ignore the truth
And end up on Heartbreak Avenue ooh
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t believe I’m back at square one
One turn and I’m back in your arms
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t believe I’m back at square one
One turn and I’m back in your arms
Was wide open then you dropped the ball
Now I’m disappointed
Sunshine mixed with a little hurricane
Baby I wanna be your endgame
Should’ve told you from the start
Now you know I’m a little insane
Now I’m disappointed
Sunshine mixed with a little hurricane
Baby I wanna be your endgame
Should’ve told you from the start
Now you know I’m a little insane
I let you fool me once
But I can’t let you fool me twice
You mad that I’m getting spicy
Want someone who don’t play about me
I’m done settling settling
Done pedaling backpedaling
But I can’t let you fool me twice
You mad that I’m getting spicy
Want someone who don’t play about me
I’m done settling settling
Done pedaling backpedaling
Done settling settling
I just I just can’t figure me out
I just don’t know how
Every time I try to take another route yeah
All the roads lead right back to you
I’m seeing all the signs but I ignore the truth
I just I just can’t figure me out
I just don’t know how
Every time I try to take another route yeah
All the roads lead right back to you
I’m seeing all the signs but I ignore the truth
And end up on Heartbreak Avenue ooh
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Can’t get over you
Heartbreak Avenue
Every time I try to take another route yeah
All the roads lead right back to you
I’m seeing all the signs but I ignore the truth
And end up on Heartbreak Avenue
All the roads lead right back to you
I’m seeing all the signs but I ignore the truth
And end up on Heartbreak Avenue
🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation
The lyrics portray someone repeatedly trying to escape a painful relationship, only to find every path leading back to the same person. Although she recognizes the warning signs and refuses to keep settling for disappointment, lingering devotion draws her back to the beginning each time. Torn between romantic hope and hard-earned self-respect, she remains trapped on Heartbreak Avenue, where ignored truths become recurring sorrow and love proves painfully difficult to leave behind.
