Happy Hearts

[Intro]
Why must happy hearts break so hard?
Leave you curled up in the back seat of a car
Staring up at the windshield
When will broken hearts learn how to heal?

[Verse 1]
This boy I knew was five years older than me
His daddy left him when he was three
After we went walking by a stream
He held me down and made me feel as bad as he

[Refrain]
Why must happy hearts break so hard?
Leave you standing in the darkness of the barn
Staring at those rusty wheels
When will broken hearts learn how to heal?

[Bridge]
And everybody's searching for a place to put their love
See the people on the street, they go home, and what do you think they dream of?
U-n-c-o-n-d-i-t-i-o-n-a-l l-o-v-e
Why did you leave me?

[Verse 2]
Mother, oh, why do you sleep with him?
He says he's smothering, then he comes back again
In our house for the weekend
Why must people's breaking hearts pretend?

[Outro]
Why must happy hearts break so hard?
Leave you staring in the mirror of the bar
Leave you talking to yourself
'Cause you cannot talk to anybody else
