Break Your 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.
It would break your heart if you knew me well
See, I have gone so far, that I've lost myself
There are things I have seen that I never will tell
That drove me out of my mind, and inside my self
And oh my my, it would break your heart
If you knew how I loved you, if I showed you my scars
If I played you my favorite song, laying here in the dark
Oh, my my, it would break your heart
It would bring you to tears if you knew what I know
See, I spent all my money on second day love
But I trusted somebody oh, way back when
And I loved her like fire until it drove me insane
And oh my my, it would break your heart
If you knew how I loved you, if I showed you my scars
If I played you my favorite song, laying here in the dark
Oh, my my, it would break your heart
And you can lean on me until your heart won't beat
Leave you laying here on the floor
You can lean on me until your heart don't beat
Leave you staying there on the floor
And oh my my, it would break your heart
If you knew how I loved you, if I showed you my scars
If I played you my favorite song, laying here in the dark
Oh, my my, it would break your heart
