The Way We Make a Broken Heart

[Verse 1]
Just a one more kiss, he'll have to miss this night with you
Now you're guilty of this secret love as I am too
You'll get used to telling lies and feeling sorry when he cries
Now that the strings are attached, he'll catch on, we've done our part
'Cause this is the way we make a broken heart

[Verse 2]
Lesson number one, we've just begun to hurt him so
And with lesson two he'll long for you when lights are low
Then we get to lesson three where he gets down on his knees
And begs you to stop at the door just before he comes apart
And this is the way we make a broken heart

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Now we've laid a trail of tears for him to follow
And we've thought of every line that he might swallow

[Verse 3]
And with lesson four there'll be no more for him to bear
And on some dark night we'll dim the lights on this affair
Then he'll find somebody new and she will hurt him too
'Cause there must be millions just like you and me practiced in the art
This is the way we make a broken heart
Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart
This is the way we make a broken heart
