Heartbroke

(Guy Clark)



Now, who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes

Or the bitter direction of impending good-byes

I've followed and folded, I'm wilted in place

At the sight of you standing with streaks down your face.



When your heart broke and runnin' from the reason

You got your heart broke, don't give up on believin' in me

Heart broke, who kept me from leavin'?

With my heart broke.



--- Instrumental ---



Now pride is a drag and a bore when you're lonely

Sheer madness prevails upon reason to you

But all is not lost, it's only mistaken

That's small consolation but I know just how you feel.



When your heart broke and runnin' from the reason

You got your heart broke, don't give up on believin' in me

Heart broke , who kept me from leavin'?

With my heart broke.



--- Instrumental ---



Nobody said it was goin' to be easy

We all have feelin's that need a softer touch

But nobody said that it would not be worth it

The human condition continues as such.



When your heart broke and runnin' from the reason

You've got your heart broke, don't give up on believin'

When you're heart broke, who kept me from leavin'?

With my heart broke.



You've got me heart broke...
