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.
