Lyrics for Song: IOU (A Broken Heart)
Lyrics for Album: What Does It Take (RCA Victor) [1967]



(Joyce Selznick - George Fischoff)



Dear, I've been remembering all we used to do

The things we shared together the things that IOU.



IOU the long long waits

The broken dates when you were out with someone new

IOU the tears I've cried

The times you lied and told me you were being true

IOU a thousand fights

The sleepless nights your cheating ways kept me awake

IOU a broken heart but you haven't got a heart for me to break.



If I tried for ever still I really know

I could never never pay you all I owe.



IOU the deep distress

The sorry mess you made of all the hopes I knew

IOU the vows you broke

The great big joke you made of my great love for you

IOU the tortured brain

The hurt and pain I used to bear for true love's sake

IOU a broken heart but you haven't got a heart for me to break.



IOU times and tons of grief and misery

IOU alibis that wouldn't get by a little child of three.



For my parting words to you I hope before life's through

you will owe to someone else all that IOU.



IOU some bitter pills

The shakes and chills I got when you would never phone

IOU the many times the endless times had to sit at home alone

IOU a thing or two

For all the love you'd never give but always take

IOU a broken heart but you haven't got a heart for me to break.



IOU a broken heart but you haven't got a heart for me to break...
