Heartbreak Eyes

You say the lesson's been learned
I can tell by your voice, baby just got burned
I can see in your eyes, and read your lips so well
You're a master at disguise but it ain't hard to tell
Anyone that's been through it before knows that look
I can read through your mind like a story book
And there's no happy endings to this life
Cause I can see the heartbreak in your eyes
I can feel the pain that you cry deep inside of those heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night
Calling over and over again
The voices came and took advantage, now you don't want to play
When the word got around he gave your secrets away
Now it's too late to cry you know the damage is done
Dry your tears say goodbye and know he wasn't the one
All your life you been in and out of love
Now you've folded your cards when push came to shove
You're just another number, just a victim of love's lies
I can see the heartbreak in your eyes
I can feel the pain that you cry deep inside of your heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night
Calling over and over again
Over and over again
You hear the cries through the night
Over and over...
I can see the heartbreak in your eyes
I can feel the pain that you cry deep inside of your heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night, calling over and over
Those heartbreak eyes
I can feel the pain you hide deep inside
Deep inside of those heartbreak eyes
You hear the cries through the night, calling over and over
Those heartbreak eyes
I can feel the hurt inside your heartbreak eyes
I can hear the cries at night, over and over again
