Breakin' In Another Heart
Hank Thompson · Hank Thompson & His Brazos Val [2003]
To take the place of mine
The kind of love I gave to you
Is very hard to find
You're breakin' in another heart
To try to take my place
But have I left of memory
That time cannot erase
Can you find another one
Who'll love you like I do?
One who thinks, you're everything
His world is only you
Now that you have made the change
I don't think you will find
The heart that you're breakin' in
Will be as true as mine
When you made him love you so
And talkin' what to be
I wonder when you kiss his lips
Will you think of me?
It's hard to start my life again
But what else can I do?
You're breakin' in another heart
But mine you've broken too
