You won't be satisfied until you break my heart, You're never satisfied until the teardrops start! I tried to shower you with love and kisses, But all I ever get from you is, Naggin' and braggin' My poor heart is saggin' The way you toss my heart around's a cryin' shame, I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same! You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart, Oh you won't be satisfied until you break my heart! The way you toss my heart around's a cryin' shame, I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same! You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart, Oh you won't be satisfied until you break my heart!
