Only Love Can Break Your Heart

Rickie Lee Jones (born November 8, 1954) is an American vocalist, musician, songwriter, and producer. Over the course of a career of over three decades, Jones has recorded in various musical styles including rock, R&B, blues, pop, soul, and jazz standards. Her songwriting has been characterized as "a blend of bravado and vulnerability [that] wavers on indefinable borders." She is also known for her unique singing style, especially in live performances. One concert reviewer, describing her rendering of "We Belong Together," states she "reached her apex, skating from swells into near screams into breathy whispers, from pontillist stacatto scats into brassy, trumpetlike bursts." more »

When you were young
And on your own
How did it feel
To be alone?
I was always thinking
Of games that I was playing.
Trying to make
The best of my time.

But only love
Can break your heart
Try to be sure
Right from the start
Yes only love
Can break your heart
What if your world
Should fall apart?

I have a friend
I've never seen
He hides his head
Inside a dream
Someone should call him
And see if he can come out.
Try to lose
The down that he's found.

But only love
Can break your heart
Try to be sure
Right from the start
Yes only love
Can break your heart
What if your world
Should fall apart?

I have a friend
I've never seen
He hides his head
Inside a dream
Yes, only love
Can break your heart
Yes, only love
Can break your heart
