Just a one more kiss he'll have to miss
|
This night with you
|
Now you're guilty of this secret love
|
As I am too
|
You'll get used to telling lies
|
And feeling sorry when he cries
|
Now that the strings are attached
|
He'll catch on
|
We've done our part
|
|
Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart
|
|
Lesson number one we've just begun
|
To hurt him so
|
And with lesson two I'll long for you
|
When lights are low
|
And we get to lesson three
|
When he gets down on his knees
|
And begs me to stop at the door
|
Just before
|
He comes apart
|
|
Oh, This is the way we make a broken heart
|
|
BRIDGE:
|
Well we laid a trail of tears
|
For him to follow
|
And we've thought of every lie
|
That he might swallow
|
|
And with lesson four there'll be no more
|
For him to bear
|
And on some dark night we'll dim the lights
|
On this affair
|
|
And he'll find somebody new
|
And she'll likely hurt him too
|
'Cause there must be millions just like you and me
|
Practiced in the art
|
|
Oh, This is the way we make a broken heart
|
Oh, This is the way we make a broken heart
|
