Steve Earle — Heartbroke

[Verse 1] Well who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes? Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes? I'm fallen and folded, I'm wilted in place At the sight of you standing there with them streaks down your face [Chorus] Heartbroke Running from the reason that your heart broke Don't give up on believing in me Heartbroke You kept me from leaving with my heart broke [Verse 2] Pride is a bitch and a bore when you're lonely Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield But all is not lost, it is only mistaken That's small consolation, babe, but I know just how you feel [Chorus] Heartbroke Running from the reason that your heart broke Don't give up on believing in me Heartbroke You kept me from leaving with my heart broke [Verse 3] Now nobody said it was gonna be easy We all've got our feelings that need a softer touch Nobody said that it would not be worth it The human condition continues as such [Chorus] Heartbroke Running from the reason that your heart broke Don't give up on believing in me Heartbroke You kept me from leaving with my heart broke Heartbroke Heartbroke Heartbroke
