Broken Heart   You tell me it is over, that we are through Because I haven't been paying attention to you No matter what you say or what it is you do You say my heart to you hasn’t been true You tell me it’s my fault, it has been right from the start But you don’t seem to realize you too played a part In how distant you and I over the years have became It’s no wonder your feelings no longer feel the same Because when two people in love drift so far apart The first thing that hurts and that breaks is the heart And that is all that can be felt and that can be seen For the words that are now spoken are words that are mean How did we get to this point, I never thought we would end this way No matter how hard I tried or how long I have prayed That what we once shared would make everything all right And the love we once felt would once again ignite But I guess when two people in love drift so far apart The first thing that hurts and that breaks is the heart And that is all that can be felt and that can be seen For the words that are now spoken are words that are mean So I guess the only thing that is now left for us to do Is to take the step that we've been dreading and has been long overdue It’s not going to be easy but its what needs to be done Since you have told me I am no longer the one I wish it didn’t have to end this way, guess it was just meant to be That now is the time that you and I set one another free So as we travel new paths all of our own may love be what we find A love that right from the start speaks to our heart and to our mind.
