Did you really think that I would really take you back Let you back in my heart One more time, oh, no no Did you think I'd still care That there'd be more feeling there Did you think you could walk back In my life, oh So you found you missed the love you threw away Baby, but you found it out too late, too late And so you know the way it feels to cry The way that I cried when you broke my world in two And baby I learned the way to break a heart I learned from the best, I learned from you Oh baby, now, I learned from you I remember cold nights Tears I thought would never dry How you shattered my world With your goodbye, your goodbye Would a sold my soul then Just to have you back again Now you are the last thing on my mind Now you say you're sorry and you've Changed your ways Sorry but you changed your ways too late And so you know the way it feels to cry The way that I cried when you broke my world in two And baby I learned the way to break a heart I learned from the best, I learned from you Oh baby, now, I learned from you So when all you've got are sleepless night When those tears are clouding up your eyes Just remember it was you Who said goodbye, who said goodbye And so you know the way it feels to cry The way that I cried when you broke my world in two And baby I learned the way to break a heart I learned from the best, I learned from you Oh baby, now, I learned from you I learned from the best I learned from you
