Conway Twitty
"I Can Hear My Heart Break" lyrics

I Can Hear My Heart Break

I'm surrounded by silence
Tormented by dreams
Tortured by sweet words
That you didn't mean

It's so still and this, this silence
That I can't hardly take
For I can hear
I can hear
My heart break

Now these arms are mighty lonesome
Guess they're missing you
And I have to admit it
Honey, I miss you too

I sit here in this silence
Half asleep, half awake
And I can hear
I can hear
My heart break

Empty days without number
Lonely nights I can't bear
That old world's gone right on by me
Who's to know?
Who's to care?

I keep listening for your footsteps
Little sounds you used to make
And I can hear
I can hear
My heart break
My heart break
