George Strait
"Heartbroke" lyrics

Heartbroke

Now who wouldn't notice
The fire in your eyes
Or the bitter direction
Of impending goodbyes?

I've followed and folded
I'm wilted in place
At the sight of you standing
With streaks down your face

When your heart broke
And running from the reason
You got your heart broke
Don't give up on believing in me
Heart broke
Who kept me from leaving
With my heart broke?

Now pride is a drag
And a bore when you're lonely
Sheer madness prevails
Upon reason to you

But all is not lost
It's only mistaken
That's small consolation
But I know just how you feel

When your heart broke
And running from the reason
You got your heart broke
Don't give up on believing in me
Heart broke
Who kept me from leaving
With my heart broke?

Nobody said
It was going to be easy
We all have feelings
That need a softer touch
But nobody said
That it would not be worth it
The human condition
Continues as such

When your heart broke
And running from the reason
You've got me heart broke
Don't give up on believing in me
Heart broke
Who kept me from leaving
With my heart broke?
You've got me heart broke
