Don't worry girl, it's not so bad Just say goodbye, in a way I'm glad. Cause I don't think that I could handle success. It might make me think there really is happiness. Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Apologies, need not be spoken. Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Long ago, I lived in ecstacy. That long lost girl, was a part of me. Then she left, I was to blame. Destroyed by love, I am not the same. Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Apologies, need not be spoken. Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken So if you leave, you won't see a fuss from me. I've been long gone down the road of misery An empty shell, I know that love don't last. She's all I got, a shadow from the past. Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken Apologies, need not be spoken. Can't Break a Heart, that's already broken

I'm so tired of your sincerity Is there anything else that you can offer me? So many other topics to discuss that have absolutely nothing to do with us. Plan a vacation, turn up the TV Buy some new clothes, but don't you forget to forget about me. I hear the same jokes as everyone else. I perfer to keep them to myself. A class clown once, now I barely get by. I could have done something else, but I didn't try. Plan a vacation, turn up the TV Buy some new clothes, but don't you forget to forget about me. The TV flickers, I stay in my room. The air conditioning, it's as cold as a tomb. My little hide away, I got everything I need. Pathetic? Yeah well do I have your sympathy? Plan a vacation, turn up the TV Buy some new clothes, but don't you forget to forget about me.

Late in the day, when the street lights come on. I sit by the window, watch the girls go home. A day at the office, with not much to do. Grey middle age, how did we let it get through? A few extra pounds, and a loss of hair. Suddenly no taste in things to wear. Some minor aches, and the bills to pay. People like us, remember what we used to say? Early in the morning, when the house is cold. I think how much easier, it would to be old. I work at my work bench, if I still can see. Write letters to the newspaper, be all that I can be. Late in the day. Late in the day. Late in the day.

Square One 03:05
And now it's goodbye And I can't seem to understand why. You said you tried, But you can't keep living a lie. You said it would not work out. You said you had your doubts. I tried to make it work any way, but I was wrong, you never wanted to stay And now it's goodbye And I can't seem to understand why. You said you tried, But you can't keep living a lie. I never knew what was on your mind. Now I know you were just killing time. I gave you everything that I had. But that only made you more mad. And now it's goodbye And I can't seem to understand why. You said you tried, But you can't keep living a lie. Back to square one, seems like everything's been undone I lose my cool when I think of you. I'm worked up, I guess it's easy to do And now it's goodbye And I can't seem to understand why. You said you tried, But you can't keep living a lie.

I Got You 03:38
I got you, that's all I want I won't forget, that's a whole lot I don't go out, now that you're in Sometimes we shout, but that's no problem I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin' Look at you, you're a pageant You're everything, that I've imagined Something's wrong, I feel uneasy You show me, tell me you're not teasin' I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin' There's no doubt, not when I'm with you When I'm without, I stay in my room Where do you go, I get no answer You're always out, it gets on my nerves I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes you can tell that I'm not lying I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lyin' I don't know why sometimes I get frightened You can see my eyes, you can tell that I'm not lying
