When a Heart Is Broken

See my heart is broken

She wants to love him, ready to give up everything
To be there when he calls, yeah
He wants to live life, see the whole world
Love don't come easy at all

Well, I've been there
Like you before, yeah
And I know how it is
When they walk out that door

When a heart is broken
You feel like givin' up
Livin' like a prisoner
Convicted of love

When you know it's over
It's like a shot in the dark
Tryin' to find your way back to the start
When a heart is broken

He wouldn't let her hold him back
So he set off on his way
But she hoped, he found the joy
He was searchin' for, yeah, yeah

She stayed and she cried a while
Then decided to move on
'Cause she knew in life
She deserved much more

See only time can heal her pain
Lord, I pray that she won't
Make those mistakes again
Ooh

'Cause when a heart is broken
You feel like givin' up
Livin' like a prisoner
Convicted of love

When you know it's over
It's like a shot in the dark
Tryin' to find your way back to the start
When a heart is broken

We all have our separate needs
Our separate wants from life
But if you love somebody
See you both have to compromise

Try to work it out
Find a way to make things right
If you don't wanna lose in love
If you don't want a broken heart

When a heart is broken
You feel like givin' up
Livin' like a prisoner
Convicted of love

When you know it's over
It's like a shot in the dark
Tryin' to find your way back to the start
When a heart is broken

When a heart is broken
You feel like givin' up
Livin' like a prisoner
Convicted of love

When you know it's over
It's like a shot in the dark
Tryin' to find your way back to the start
When a heart is broken, yeah

Oh, see my heart is broken, yeah
'Cause when my heart is broken, yeah
And my arms are open, [Incomprehensible]
See my heart is broken, yeah, ooh
