Before She Breaks My Heart
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.
I've lived over half my life
And she's only just nineteen
Will she wake up one day and find
That she's really changed her mind
And she's not in love with me
Does she love the man I am
Is it her Father that she sees
She has time to be unsure
For her there's time to find a cure
But not for me
So, before she breaks my heart
I must say "go"
Before she breaks my heart
I must say "no"
She can't stay (She can't stay)
I must make her go away
However hard she cries
If I have to tell her lies
Before she breaks my heart
As I stand alone, I vow
That today will be the day
That I'll find the strength somehow
To end it here and now
To tell her she can't stay
Then she'll walk into the room
And her arms will open wide
It's not a little girl I see
But a woman, warm and free
Who wants me by her side
But before she breaks my heart
I must say "go"
Before she breaks my heart
I must say "no"
She can't stay (She can't stay)
I must make her go away
However hard she cries
If I have to tell her lies
Before she breaks my heart
Before she breaks my heart
