Lyrics

Broken-hearted Girl

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You're everything I thought you never were

And nothing like I thought you could've been

But still you live inside of me

So tell me, how is that?

You're the only one I wish I could forget

The only one I'd love to not forgive

And though you break my heart

You're the only one

And though there are times when I hate you 'cause I can't erase

The times that you hurt me and put tears on my face

And even now while I hate you, it pains me to say

I know I'll be there at the end of the day

I don't wanna be without you, babe

I don't want a broken heart

Don't wanna take a breath without you, babe

I don't wanna play that part

I know that I love you, but let me just say

I don't wanna love you in no kind of way, no, no

I don't want a broken heart

And I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl

No, no, no broken-hearted girl

I'm no broken-hearted girl

There's something that I feel I need to say

But up 'till now I've always been afraid

That you would never come around

And still I wanna put this out

You say you got the most respect for me

But sometimes I feel you're not deserving of me

And still you in my heart

But you're the only one

And yes, there are times when I hate you, but I don't complain

'Cause I've been afraid that you would walk away

Oh, but now I don't hate you, I'm happy to say

That I will be there at the end of the day

I don't wanna be without you, baby

I don't want a broken heart

Don't wanna take a breath without you, babe

I don't wanna play that part

I know that I love you, but let me just say

I don't wanna love you in no kind of way, no, no

I don't want a broken heart

And I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl

No, no, no broken-hearted girl

Now I'm at a place I thought I'd never be, ooh

I'm living in a world that's all about you and me, yeah

Ain't gotta be afraid, my broken heart is free

To spread my wings and fly away, away with you

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I don't wanna be without my baby

I don't want a broken heart

Don't wanna take a breath without my babe

I don't wanna play that part

I know that I love you, but let me just say

I don't wanna love you in no kind of way, no, no

I don't want a broken heart

I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl

No, no, no broken-hearted girl

Broken-hearted girl, no, no

No broken-hearted girl

No broken-hearted girl
