You Could’ve Heard a Heart Break

Behind the bar
I see some crazy things
I watch those disappearing wedding rings
A telephone call paging so and so
There he is shakin' his head no

'Cause he's got this girl hangin' all over him
He can't quit now
He's gone out on a limb
Then the place turns quiet as a mummy's tomb
Guess who happened to walk in the room

You could've heard a heart break
You could've heard a tear drop
I feel so bad for her sake
Now what's she gonna do?
The chances that a fool takes
Never knowin' when to stop
You could've heard a heart break
Breakin' right in two

She walks on over
Tears in her eyes
And knows she's gonna hear a pack of lies
The silence is deafening
All eyes are on her
What will she say to that innocent girl?

Her hands start shaking
'Cause the words don't come
She's in shock
Her whole body is numb
Everyone there is holding their breath
With the slightest whisper
We'll know what she says

You could've heard a heart break
You could've heard a tear drop
I feel so bad for her sake
Now what's she gonna do?
The chances that a fool takes
Never knowin' when to stop
You could've heard a heart break
Breakin' right in two

You could've heard a heart break
You could've heard a tear drop
I feel so bad for her sake
Now what's she gonna do?
The chances that a fool takes
Never knowin' when to stop
You could've heard a heart break
Breakin' right in two

You could've heard a heart break
