Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I never felt as helpless, as I do today My world just fell around me as I watched you drive away There's nothing left between us, somehow we've grown apart Cause I've got through my head, I just can't break it to my heart [Chorus:] I can't believe this is me on the hurting side of pain Sifting through the ashes still trying to find a flame But the flame has turned to embers left glowing in the dark I've got it through my head, I just can't break it to my heart If I could, Lord knows I would spin back the hands of time And piece these scattered memories that are cluttered in my head Pick up where we left off and make a brand new start I've got it through my head, I just can't break it to my heart [Chorus] Oh I've got it through my head, I just can't break it to my heart I just can't, I just can't break it to my heart I just can't, I just can't break it to my heart Just can't break it to my heart I just can't, I just can't break it to my heart
